This board has been a comfort to me because it our real life, I haven't met anyone with a similar child, but on this board, plenty of children have similar traits. I feel bad that I thought something was wrong with her at some points and the more we look, the more it seems it just has to do with her being gifted and sensitive. She doesn't have a single playmate that she can connect with beyond the super-silly-spastic thing she can do around kids her age. I wish she had a child who she could connect with on her level of imagination and language. She also knows not to speak to kids her age about certain topics or to use more advanced language. This has been frustrating for her her whole life I imagine. The one difference between our girls is she was an early talker with language so clear at times I literally thought I was imagining things because she sounded so "adult." She repeated words like kicking, tweezers, water, etc. at nine or ten months in a clear voice. SCARY, but there are kids on here who did more earlier. That actually normalizes things for me. What are your DDs gross motor skills like and what are your plans for K?
