Like I said before, we're not sure what LOG DD5 is at. In regards to Ruf's LOG, I think she's a solid Level 4 with some attributes toward a level 5 (DH thinks she's more of a level 5). I guess I find it hard to believe that with PGness being as rare as it's supposed to be, that my child could be PG. Denial? Yeah, I guess so.
And I don't really know what PGness looks like. In my mind, I just think of things I've seen in movies -- kids that are solving quadratic equations by kindergarten, mind-blowing code breaking skills and well... being Doogie Howser! There are a lot of families on here with PG kids, and I suppose the demographic feels flooded to me in a way that makes it even more unbelievable that my child may actually be PG, too. (I could go into a list of stats and personality characteristics if that may help anyone here on determine where she may be, but I suppose short of an IQ test, I will never know.)
I do know I belong here because I cannot talk about my kids to anyone else without feeling uncomfortable or judged. I see friends on Facebook who write great things about their children doing well on a writing project, reading tests that are "off the charts" and whatnot. And I can't say a thing about my DC's. Yeah, I guess I could say something like, "DD-almost-3 explained to me how the batteries inside her sweatshirt make the Dora star light up when she moves." Or "DD5 just tested up another level in reading -- she's at 3rd grade but hasn't maxed out yet."
So I guess I do know we belong... thanks to everyone who just read this crazy rant! Some days I have some serious GT denial and no one in person to talk to who really gets it (except DH).
It can sure be a lonely world out there sometimes, huh?
