[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 257548, member: 1550"] 80's is average and may actually be higher if she has LDs (which would be probable if she had birth problems and surgeries). I'm sure my daughter tested low because she doesn't test well. She is obviously brighter than 88. In no way should that impede your daughter from having a great career. Can she do hair? Become a lab tech? Groom pets? Do real estate? Not all kids will be brain surgeons. I have a "gifted" son who is severely underacheiving because he has other problems holding him back. I would not grieve over an IQ in the 80's. That's hardly hopeless and may actually be much higher. My son tested 75 at school, but privately his IQ is 110. Considering he is now getting all A's and is always on the honor roll, I'd say he is closer to the 110. Not all kids test to their ability levels. I think you are selling her short and should have her see a neuropsychologist to help her decide on her future. I don't see any reason to grieve. (((Hugs))) [/QUOTE]
