my two kids (DD7 MG 2E and DD6 HG+) have never ever had any interest in workbooks, worksheets, or any time of systematic learning that is the norm in "schoolwork". Both started to read late for gifties (second half of kindergardent) but then went very very fast thru all the reading levels. I thought it was unusual and doubted their giftedness at times, until i read thru this forum and find that there are lots of kids like this.
