Wow, verbal 152, that's intense. I work on trying to strengthen my vocal chords. Our child talks so much about everything and is so intense, there are many days when I am hoarse from over-interaction, discussion, debates.

The schools for some reason (maybe many reasons) really teach for (I'm assuming) the average IQ child (100 points). So, it never tires out a gifted child mentally but it takes up most of the main hours of the day. The gifted child needs to get mental exercise before and after school.

The parents or responsible adults at home really still have to provide the mental exercise even though the child was in school.

We feel your anguish. Hang in there.
