I've read that many gifted people have difficulty with organization. DS7 has great difficulty with it, and I've always chalked it up to him being just like me. As mine always was, his desk at school is the messiest in class. He seems oblivious to the mess (will just walk over it in his playroom) and frequently forgets to bring things home from school, turn in his homework on time, etc.... Of course, if it's something he's interested in, he NEVER forgets. LOL

So, my question is whether this issue with organization is common to those who are gifted, or if it frequently represents other issues like ADHD?

Any experiences with this?

Thanks for your thoughts.
