The good news is that you know that at minimum she is very bright, and that for now you have a good fit classroom situation. Interestingly, I bet that testers who 'get' gifted kids are better because they are safer for intuitive and emotionally sensitive kids who are already used to 'covering up a bit' for folks who don't really 'get' just how gifted a kid can be.

You really have no idea what the highest possible score your DD could do- only that her EQ antenna are working.

I think that some girls do 'silly' to ward off danger, the way some boys to 'though guy.' I think I'm one of those girls - even though here I do a lot less of it than IRL. A good number of my 'humor Alerts' are all about the lifetime habit of 'don't attack, It's only silly me.'

Love and More Love,
