I think there are probably several types of posts here. Three stick out in my mind at the moment, policy threads, general question threads and support threads.

The policy type usually start with a headline and link and lead to back and forth debate. These might seem to have only a loose tie to gifted issues.

The general question threads are more nuts and bolts issues. I posted a question asking for Audiobooks recommendations yesterday. Why did I post here? It goes without saying here that my five year old might be interested in stories with greater complexity than Amazon's idea of what a five year old would like.

Support threads, like The Ultimate brag thread, have more of a we are all in this together vibe.

My advice would be to avoid the policy threads. They probably aren't going to help you with your kid.

Use the search feature to get the information you want and ignore the rest.
