I like HeyDad's "Willful" for DS7 For DS10 I'd either say "amazing" or "freak" (mostly in a good way) depending on the situation For DS12 I'd say "Insightful", "Creative", or "Lazy"--again depending on the situation For DS14 I'd say either "Egocentric" or "Soulmate"

san54 Unregistered S	As a child, he was intense/insatiable. Since he was our first, and we had no one else to compare him to, I didn't realize he was exceptional although it was clear he was bright. When his IQ test, 2nd gr, came back 153, we knew for sure. I remember he constantly wore me out with his demands for more mental stimulation. Last edited by san54; 10/17/08 11:11 AM.
