Hello everyone and thanks so much for your replies. It always helps knowing someone here understands. Calmon, wow! your son and my daughter would make a perfect pair! He sounds absolutely delightful! Aculady, I just ordered the DORA/DOMA tests. Thank you for the suggestion. I had never heard of them before. Is anyone familiar with Dr. Ruf's talentIgniter assessment? I thought that might be a good starting point as well. You are all right...I do have to talk to this teacher soon. I'm going to send out an email today (dreading it) I'll keep you posted. Have a good day everyone! smile
