Okay. Thanks. This is what I thought I understood.

I'm guessing that my friend heard that statement with respect to slower developing kids catching up with ND kids by 3rd grade, like you said, KatelynsMom. I think my friend then turned around and applied that to an advanced reader.

My friend's DH is HG, and their DS had to be evaluated for some developmental quirks. The jury is out on whether he is gifted, ND, twice exceptional, or delayed.

I'm glad I didn't try to correct her in the moment.
