Well, what about memory? DD is incredible at recalling odd facts that she does not even remember learning, and remembers stuff from a long time ago, but when it comes to short-term memory, shes hopeless. I mean, probably not below average in memorizing number sequences/words, she may be a bit above average, but definitely not what I would expect from a gifted child, and certainly not photographic like one would falsely assume by her incredible memory of trivial things. (such as the name of the hotel we stayed in on our trip to Washington DC, 3-4 years ago, and it was not a famous one, like "The Ritz") Lastly, she is horrible (!) at remembering instructions. I'll tell her to do something, she'll start doing it, and hours later I ask her about it and she just stares blankly.(and thats what I meant about hopeless). What experiences do you guys have regarding memory in MG/HG+ children.
