DS16 is exactly like that. To be honest I was clueless about him being gifted even though he exhibited most of the classic signs before he started school. It was the preschool teacher that identified him. The school accommodated him without testing and as a result he wasn't tested until he was 11.
All through school DS has been very well behaved, has had no behaviour problems, doesn't complain, he is effectively compliant to a tee. The school says he is an impeccable role model for both teachers and students. Sound familiar? And yes, he is EG/PG.
