great book

Parenting, gifted children is a great resource for anyone looking for information about their gifted child. In the beginning of the book, it teaches us how to recognize giftedness to begin with, which is nice, because not all gifts look the same. And then each chapter explores something you might face as a parent of a gifted child. Well written and very informative. Talks about the education system, community support, and even transitioning from child to adult. A must read for any parent of a gifted child.

Fantastic Resource for Families of Gifted Children

As the mother of three gifted children, I wish I had had this resource when they were young. Bruce and Elaine have created an easy to read, thorough guide for parents of gifted children that would be a valuable addition to their tool kit. Highly recommend.

While this book was purchased for the intent of helping my toddler (who I believe is gifted), it actually helped me, a gifted person as well, with reminders of self-advocacy, social and intellectual challenges, and how to make a lasting legacy with my gifts. I absolutely plan to read this again when my child is older and onward.
