Another thought. When I was in school and not at all challenged, I didn't realize I was any different from the other kids, which made things kind of confusing. So when classmates didn't understand things or didn't know answers, I would not raise my hand to answer because if no one knew the answer, I must not be right. And for whatever reason, it never sunk in that i really did know all the material, even if it turned out that my answers were right. I doubted myself through college. I now realize that gifted people do learn differently, and I was probably the only one like me in grade school. Since I thought everyone else was just like me, it created all kinds of issues. Not saying the is going on with your DD, but it can't hurt to explain how GT kids think differently (only need to hear something once to learn it, eg).

Yes, yes, yes to this.
