I just wanted to note that I have three kids, one HG+ and one HG, and all three of them have had varying degrees of articulation issues. My DS6, who is grade skipped and subject advanced, in particular, has some unclear articulation with several letters and letter combinations, but he is a very smart kid and says some spectacular things, even if he doesn't say them clearly. Also, most speech articulation issues aren't really "problems" until first grade or so say the speech pathologists. So, I'd be careful in trying to equate clear speaking with appropriateness of peers.

OTOH, all the other issues with the kids seeming to be on an entirely different academic plane could be problematic . . . . When does she start school?

She thought she could, so she did.
