Two months later, I can't make her leave me alone!
Well, she sounds like an intense person. I think 2 months is quite early in to an 'enrichment topic' to calm down about it.
I wouldn't worry so much about the topic of her passion, just about how much time and energy you personally want to put into it. So don't pick up the phone, when you do start the conversation with how busy you are and don't have time right now, limit your in person visits to the frequency and amount of time you feel comfortable with. It's perfectly possible to set limits in a kind and polite way (and I should know because plenty of people have done it to me
)
I would encourage her to reach out to other parents of gifted kids, perhaps through a SENG model parenting group.
Her son is certainly old enough for a WISC and application to DYS. Frankly it seems possible to me that her son is 'way way less gifted' than your son and would still qualify or be near to qualifying to DYS, yes? Does she have an appointment?
Best Wishes,
Grinity
