Raising Gifted Kids: Everything You Need to Know to Help Your Exceptional Child Thrive

I have been searching for a book such as this. This book had me alternately laughing and almost crying because every single page had something that I could relate to. I loved the use of real life family case history to illustrate what works and what is disastrous. Many practical solutions were offered to effect order back into your home. This book helped me tremendously to understand both what my son is going through and why I feel the way I do when communicating with him. Great wonderful resource, I've been telling other parents of gifted children that I know to run to the bookstore and get this.

Raising Gifted Kids has helped me to understand my children better and we are a happier, more cooperative family. This book is my reference guide; it provides clear guidance that is easily comprehendible and implement able. I found it so helpful that I gave my boy's teacher a copy; I recommend it to everybody who has an influence on a child.

This book is for anyone who has ever wondered if a child under their care might be gifted, and what to do about it. It's full of affective approaches to a wide range of puzzling, exhausting, and endearing behaviors, and important considerations for educational options. The author has a friendly writing style and is a great source of comfort, confirmation, and inspiration; I will be referring to this book often in the upcoming years.

The author uses her expertise in the area of child devlopment and her vast experience working with gifted children and their families to present a reader friendly guide to parenting gifted children. This book is an excellent resource for parents, teachers, school psychologists and principals.

The author surprisingly is not a know-it-all but rather an astute observer of "high-potential" or "gifted" children. If you are a gifted adult you may find yourself wishing you had this kind of astute parenting! This book will enable many mothers and fathers (and grandparents) to help give the children in their care rich and rewarding lives. Your kids don't have to be geniuses for them to benefit from the author's experience.
