Do you guys think six is a critical age for gifted boys? Mine was happy all last year but a couple of weeks before he turned six he started to complain school idle boring and he hates it. I have been advised that some kids are like that and to ignore it! Maybe that was the advice my parents got.
I think it's more that school is new and exciting for a while and once the novelty wears off and you drop all the free play they do in K you're stuck in this room being asked to add 9 and 3. And that has to be boring.
