so do you think we can really tell if our children are gifted at these early ages? It has appeared my daughter was gifted since she was a baby, and she has had testing, comments, etc. that suggests she is, just as the other little ones on here have had, but do you think we can really tell if they are gifted and how gifted at this early age? I am familar with RUfs guidelines, but are there every kids who are performing and doing simply amazing things, with little or no teaching, and then just fizzle out?
