hi all
i have been struggling with my daughter since she was two years old. We just confirmed that she is highly gifted (WPPSI FSIQ 147). While its a relief in some ways that there is a resaon for her overall intensity, I can't find any info on the thing we are struggling with the most: baby talk that goes on for sometimes hours a day. Sometimes i think she CAN'T stop. It almost never occurs at school (but they have heard it). It started at age 2 when she already had very mature regular speech. The sad thing is that if she is doing it for attention, its working against her as it is so hard to be around her and give her the attention she needs when she is doing it. We try giving her lots of "special time" but does not seem to have any impact at all. Anyone dealt with this.. I am hoping a move to a gifted school for kindergarden will help.. any idea if it could actually make it worse???
