Gifted children are expensive and time-consuming. They usually need less sleep than you do, ask more questions than you can answer, want 100 percent of your attention 24 hours a day, have obsessive hobbies, react intensely to everything, endlessly long for a best friend who understands them completely, and hold perfectionistic standards for themselves and you. We will be discussing such issues as coping with the characteristics of giftedness; siblings and birth order; understanding introversion; underachievement; and keys to successful parenting.

All Welcome!! This event is free!
