Hi Austin,
For me it is not the measuring of IQ that is an issue.
The issue for me and a lot of us on here seems to be education. How can we get the sysem to provide services to our children who are years ahead of their peers in many subject areas? If a 6th grader was told he was going to do 1st grade work all year that would cause an outrage. So then why is it ok when we are told our kids will be forced to do work that they did years ago simply because they are this chronological age. However, this is a point many of us can't seem to get across to many educators. I think many teachers have one curriculum and do not want to waste the time making a new one for 1 child. I even bought books for my DS6 and the teacher was too lazy to use them with him. I feel like I am hitting a wall all the time and it is so exhausting. Next year will will try a new school. I wish I had more time to devote to him.
With my other DS2 I don't feel this overwhelming responsibility to not "waste" his brain.
