Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums Parenting and Advocacy Advice on what to tell DS4 before he takes IQ test

I missed a lot yesterday, didn't I? I took the test (thanks for the link) because I couldn't recall what sort I ended up as last time. I fluctuate every time I take one of these tests, BTW, do you folks all stay the same? I was a INFJ for a minute until I saw a remark that I missed completing one question. I fixed that and turned into an ENFJ. I have always flipped and flopped on the in/ex border, so it's no surprise that I changed with just one more data point. My I and F are WAY up there though, and my judging is a wimpy 11%. So was it Isa who said she is ENFJ? You've got company...


Now I'll have to see who is on the wiki list...

Bob Saget and Oprah?

At least now I understand why I get so upset by things that just roll off other people's backs. I can't help it, I am all about feeeeelings, woah woah woah feeeelings...

I am strong J, but I really needed FlyLady to get my act together when DS3 was born (I was working p/t from home at that time). I was the type who had to do either everything or nothing. The idea of 15 minutes at a time and routine saved me. I could finish all the work related things, but the house was a mess. BTW Laundry got always done, but the dishes ...

DH is INTJ with very weak J. He doesn't mind mess at all where I am in so much better mood when the house is clean.

That said, I need to go and clean up the house. NOW.

Sorry i created I chatroom. I've never been on any sort of online discussion board before, so that's my excuse. But since the psychologists seem to think it's helpful in dealing with your gifted kids/family to know what everyone is, it's not really completely unrelated to gifted issues, is it? [Also, i am very pleased that i got tons of information related to the actual topic before M-B mania took over!]

And I'm an INFP with great masking / coping skills so that I can go into the world if I have to and I can EXPLAIN analytically even if I get there intuitively. See I'm faking it here, too!

Ok I am strongly J, barely T (it was a 1) and moderate on the I and low on the N. Lorel, mine has changed too when I take it. I've been an INFJ before (as the 1 on the T shows).

So maybe I can be in 2 clubs. ann, aline and incog can I join your club too???? Although I think we need to have someone other than incog take up the dues. I'm not sure what happened to mine I sent her for the other club.........

Please, don't apologize! It's been fun for us!!! (Or we wouldn't have posted TWELVE PAGES in a little more than a day! Yowsa!)

Truthfully, we should probably apologize to you for hijacking your thread so completely.

To our credit, we are helpful before we hijack a thread. Once we've given help, though, all subjects are pretty much fair game: Hannibal Lecter, Weird Al, Bob Saget (Bob Saget? Really?), and Flylady.

We are a strange and interesting bunch, aren't we?

Hi Isa,
I'm ENFJ, too! Although the E is only slightly (1), and sometimes, depending on my mood, I come out as INFJ. But the NFJ part seems pretty consistent!

oops, sorry to add to the hijack. just irrestible!

Who do you think picks up the bottles we pass when we need them? Those things don't buy themselves, you know!
