I would like to know more about all this. I'm thinking my son could be ok to just condense his math leaving time for other things like computer programming or something else.
I'm personally banking on this and we're homeschooling. I feel like we're dragging our feet a little on math in favor of letting DS pursue things like chess and programming. And in the mean time it's letting his accuracy and maturity catch up with his conceptual math understanding. It's a hard balance. I definitely have an asynchronous kid.
I also like to think if your child is generally happy, engaged, learning, and truly challenged in some areas (learning how to learn) that's a likely recipe for long term success. Regardless of what kind of learning environment you choose.
