Quietly losing my mind in this little corner of the world. It's all about DS6 (going on 7), HG. You see, no-one is disputing his ability, school is great and has accelerated him, but oh, he is soooo slow! I mean at everything! He just seems to be in his own world when it comes to 'time'. For instance he has no gross or fine motor problems but he is always last to finish his work and go to sit on the carpet at school. It wouldn't matter if it were Pre-K work, or 3rd Grade work (which the school has put him with). I try to defend him (Mom is like that), putting it down to perfectionism, and although there's an element of this, it really isn't the answer. Heck, he even walks slow - without a care in the world. Probably the only thing that is not slow about him is his brain! I really don't know if this character trait is in any way related to giftedness or ADD , but if there is anyone out there dealing with this too, or has any helpful knowledge/hints, please help.
