Hello there and thank you for your time in responding to my post. To give you the short version I am a mom who has been searching for answers for 4 years. My son, who is now 7, has been a challenge to raise. Moody to be polite. To the point a dr even prescribed him antidepressants.The end of last school year his teacher thought he needed special needs classes. The begining of this school year his teacher says he is a few levels above his grade. last year aspergers was mentioned this year gifted. I am frustrated i want my child to be both challenged and supported in whatever gifts/challenges he faces. I just dont know what that is and noone around him seems to know either. Although his IQ has not been tested yet, his intelligence is apparent. Could you all please help me out but highlighting your observatation of gifted kids both the positive and negative or point me in a direction I can obtain this information?
