Those are really good points.
Can I ask you, with grade-skipping, what's the end game? I mean, at this IQ range I think DD could potentially be one of those kids who finishes high school 3 or 4 years early. Then what? Off to college?
I guess you could call this my meta-concern with grade-skipping. Shy as she is, I bet she could make the adjustment, and then run through 4th grade material, and then 5th, ... etc.
It's why, in the abstract at least, it seems to me like being with her peers in a GT program would be preferable. That way she gets the whole-school experience, at ages appropriate to her.
But then again I do some research and converse with folks like yourself that say acceleration worked very well for them. Which, to bring it full circle, is when I start worrying about the end game. I'd really appreciate any insights you have.
