My daughter will also be tested next year. Her twin is very smart but not gifted and she feels sad because she's not like her brother and sister  Poor sweet thing  .
What do your childs school do for them since they are gifted? (above average student) |

Sometimes I feel like my baby is gifted but then she put a sock on her hands and runs around the house and brings me back to reality lol |

With my daughter I let her know that she has special qualities about herself that her brother and her twin do not have. Trust me, they all get equal love and support..probably too much.
I have to agree that even though they are above average students they also do the goofy-est things. There will be a wall and they will run right into it and I'll just have to scratch my head and wonder...lol |

Children: One boy 8, twin girls 7. | Re: Anyone else have kids in the gifted program? | | Oh just wait!! Mine are 7,6,6 and I have to be careful because some of the things they come up with are hysterical but I can't let them see me laughing. And YES they will pick up on EVERYTHING you say. You will think you're having a private conversation on the phone and the next thing you know it's on a prayer card at our local church!
I was speaking with a friend saying "my dh didn't put enough money in the bank and I wanted to buy the kids a real tree" well.......... when I got in the car after church I asked what they had put on their prayer card and one said "I prayed that we wouldn't be poor and that I wouldt have a Christmas tree for Christmas" OMG...it gets better.............
I get a call from my church asking if they could bring a Christmas tree over to my house. I wanted to die!
Each year gets better and better. I love my little one's so much and I get a kick out of them every day. Great....now I am going to have to go volenteer at their school. You made me miss them. lmbo |
