Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums Parenting and Advocacy ok to not challenge son for two years?

Thanks everyone for your thoughts.
Good point, if things are easy, you miss out on learning to handle difficult problems. I hadn't thought about that. �It's not that I'm so smart , it's just that I stay with problems longer .� Albert Einstein
Good ideas too about developing other interests in music, sports, Lego Mindstorms, etc.. The internet is irresistible to my DS (and me) but I think for the good of our family we need to break that habit.
As for the G&T program in the public school, my DD went through it in grade school. It was a not too good pull out program, but it did get better in the 6th grade with dedicated classes for G&T math and English.
Thanks again.
