Mine was resistant to dealing with it at first too. He worked and I stayed home... he had less time with our child and less knowledge of what was typical.

My advice from my experience is to learn all you can yourself and don't push it with your husband. I predict he'll get there in his own time. I don't know the age of your child but as mine became school age and dad got time around age-mates he got much more interested.

The only other advice I have is to ask about your husband's experience with being gifted and talk about yours. Share what you liked and what you didn't and your fears for similar experiences for your child. Ask if he has any "don't do that" experiences he wants to see your child avoid.

Hope the conflicts improve soon. It's lonely feeling like you and your spouse are on different pages with parenting.
