Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums General Discussion The difference between "stuggle" and "challenge"

I mentioned at a meeting that my dd11 was under challenged. She easily gets straight A and we suppliment at home, because the school is sadly unable/willing to work with her. So I was essentially told that I wanted my dd11 to struggle to get a "C" rather than continue to show her "A" skill. How would you have handled it?
