Hi, your post resonated with me... I also have an HG child who has emotional difficulties... and similarly, does not really have any learning disability.
I am also toying with the idea of homeschooling.
My advice is, if you feel you want to spend the time with her, why NOT homeschool for Kindergarten? K is not mandatory, so you can do this and still send her to first grade at the good local school, if you decide to, right? I don't see a downside.
Certainly though, based on what you describe, I would keep the pressure off her-- make it fun and loving, enjoy her company and marvel at her intelligence. Why not?
Good luck.
