I tried! Those kinds of things that interest ACS's son don't factor into my son's world. He always said school is for learning and therefore there should be no recess, breaks, PE type of courses. He had friends but thought the whole social side of school was unnecessary.
I love the contrast between our two kids! I hope it is instructive to folks who are trying to figure out the best fit for their kids.
The answer does not lie solely in the IQ numbers. You have to know your kid and listen to what they are telling you (verbally or nonverbally). [I would even guess that there are MG and ND kids who have personalities like CFK's DS and for them school probably wouldn't be a good fit either].
