She was broadcasting for over an hour, during a program where most of the other parents were genuinely worried that their kids were behind. She stayed late to continue. I did talk to the kid, and yeah, he may well be gifted. I noticed that he was doing some much more complex things with me than the ones his mother was talking about and that she was shutting him down when he did them.
If she had once seemed to notice his presence beyond shoveling food into him, and asking him to do tricks, I might have felt better about it.
(the sight-words were titles of favorite books, which doesn't seem really out there to me... is that really seeing a word, or is it recognizing the spine of a book?)
