[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 499293, member: 1514"] Well just look at my family. The only one of my kids that is working successfully is Jamie and he was my most average all of them. His IQ was just average, he made average grades, he went military because he knew he really wasnt college material and he wanted hands on and outdoorsy work. Both Billy and Cory had high IQ's. Cory's was in the 130's and Billy's was in the 140's. Actually at the highest, Cory hit 139. Billy may be smart but he cant put it to use. He works in retail. Cory is still quite smart but what good is it doing him? He cant do anything but work construction without a diploma. When Billy went into 7th grade the school actually told me you couldnt have academically gifted students who were also learning disabled. I almost choked them because he had been in those classes in the elementary school for the prior 6 years! [/QUOTE]
