[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 534393, member: 11791"] I wouldn't be at all surprised if J is indeed gifted. One of the challenges with gifted kids is that they do not develop in the same pattern as their peers. Therefore, they have trouble with peer relationships, which affects social skills development, etc. It isn't so much about getting a label for J, as it is understanding what his gifts and challenges are, so that you can find ways to give him what he needs. In this respect, he isn't different from most of "our" kids... any child who is anything except "average", has major challenges in life! [/QUOTE]
