I'm completely new to this site and looking for some suggestions/support, etc. We have a five year old daughter who is definitely advanced and possibly gifted. She fits many of the descriptions listed on this site to a "t." Her Kindergarten teacher suggested we wait a few years and then have her officially tested once she's older.

Our issues are less about her intellectual capacity and more about her emotional issues. She's intense, highly sensitive, anxious, resists change, etc. and it's causing problems with her socially and within the family.

She's obviously very young, but I'd like to know if any of you have followed a plan of action that helped you with some of the issues we have above.

I'd appreciate any insight!

Thanks!
