I believe that this is a good description of 'why leaving my son in a bad fit situation was a bad idea.'

well, if the playdate thing won't work, then it's time for DH to spend a few hours in school. I can't promise that it will work, but if DH is ever allowed to see DS's gifted academic side, then this is change DH's view. My son hid his giftedness from DH for the first few years.

Love and Good Luck,
