I hope that you feel very welcome here. I have only been here a year, but I feel that all my posts have been answered in a constructive, non-judgmental manner. I was identified as "gifted" in school, and I may be. I was simply a well-behaved child who got things pretty quickly, enjoyed learning and did well on standardized tests. I think if my son (who s 4) was like that, I would never have found this forum because I would have known how to deal with a child like that. I came here becauae i just know his mind works differently and quicker than mine, and I found it very scary, and I didnt have anyone to talk to IRL. So, I searched and searched and thankfully, ended up here.
