Thank you for all your advice and thoughts. I'm letting it all sink in and will show my husband this post, so he can think about it all, too.
I'm even more driven because of our sixteen year old. He had all the classic signs of a gifted child starting in infancy. The day I gave birth to him he was lifting his head up and looking around. It was almost creepy.
I think he may have some sort of LD that masked his giftedness. He's a complete underacheiver now. He makes A's on all his tests, but never does the homework to go with it and I don't think he's ever studied without us. It's very sad. I'm hoping he'll do better in college, but I'm afraid because he's lacking study skills.
