Hi Gretchen,
I'm the mom of a son, but i wonder if you can share with us any of your collected wisdom. I'm specifically wondering about children who are intellectually interested in college level material, but who are maturationally and orgainzationally only at age level. Are there special techniques to deal with this type of asynchrony? Also, what about children who are used to being underchallenged in school and have been 'trained' to turn their brains off when they enter a schoolroom. Any hope for them?
thanks,
Grinity
