 Is
it all right to feel proud of your gifted child? by
Gail Post in
Gifted Challenges
- Parents of gifted children often struggle with disappointment,
frustration and fears that extend beyond routine parenting dilemmas. They
feel compelled to advocate at school, worry about their child's social
connections, and fret over complexities of executive function and
asynchronous development.

Superheroes in Training: parenting gifted kids by
Heather in WonderSchooling
- Superheroes are amazing. Even superheroes were babies once, though, and
had to learn, often through trial and error, how to use their powers
effectively.

would you feel if…” Yesterday, my kid got back into rational brain mode
quicker than I did!...

  {2e
Tuesday}: The Elusive Question by Jen Merrill,
Laughing at Chaos
- I’ve had a question for parents of gifted and twice-exceptional kids

Inevitably the answer is something along the lines of time, money, sanity,

for because I’m not sure I’m asking the right question.
