Hehe, denial. HG+, really? Goodness, what to do with THAT? Kinda feels like someone just turned on a very bright light in a very dark room and we have to come out from under our very dark covers, LOL!

One of the things it means is that the stuff that works for 2/3rd of gifted kids may leave your son uninspired. This isn't his fault, it just is the way things are. It means that many people who run gifted programs will still not 'get' him, because he will be much more similar to MG kids who are a year or two older than he will be to MG kids his same age.
It means that it's up to you to try to set up situations where he can learn as fast and as deeply and as complicated as comes naturally to him. This is a tall order.
This means that spending time with kids his own age might be very satisfying, or very frustrating, and that it isn't his fault.
Love and More Love,
