ColinsMum, Thanks for sharing the link to the article which offers a great counter-point.

I especially enjoyed the author's views on gifted children: "Your child will not learn as much or be as challenged as she could be. Don’t let anyone tell you to “live with that.” Especially if she is gifted. The world needs her to fulfill her whole potential."

This author's personal anecdotes reveal involved, engaged parents. This author's credentials also reflect a depth and breadth of experience beyond their own.

Thanks again for sharing the link!
