I came here as a newbie with a newly HG/PG kid and had no idea what I was looking for in a community. I have a private gifted board that I used for my "support" but this was my "research" board. I have found 99% of the threads to be informative, polite, respectful and engaging. A few have veered away from this lately, but like a car accident on the side of the road, I avert my eyes. I would really hate to lose the other 99% in an effort to avoid the 1%.
