I do also agree with this. Having the knowledge that I was gifted and the ramifications of that would have been a huge relief in elementary school. I really always thought something was wrong with me because I didn't fit. I do talk to my kids about it in this way.

I agree completely. Talking about giftedness and what that means to your children and how they feel about their world is probably one of the most important things we will do for them.

But giving them their exact number? I don't see any upside to it.
