its taken me a very long time to except my other two childrens giftedness i have finaly decided they probably are because i just cant ignore that when looking at them i see a 4yr old that acts like a 7yr old a 2.9yr. old who acts like a 4yr old and a 7mo. old who acts like a 1+yr old and when i just look at them all playing together and i see the strangness in their behavoirs and most of the time i dont feel happy or excited or proud that they are smart I feel extremely overwhelmed by them i am 23yrs old a young mother and this whole gifted thing scares the pants off me
If you ask me, these feelings are another pretty good sign that your kids are really GT.
From what I've seen, people who are scared or overwhelmed or freaked out about their children are almost always people who have GT kids, often HG+. People who brag about how GT their kids usually have bright-ND kids.
Totally unscientific and anecdotal, but it's what I've seen...
