Avoiding the High Achievers Label Through Homeschooling





Summary:  Homeschooling gifted or 2e children and how we avoided that high achievers label, through homeschooling.  And making efforts to follow our 2e daughter's lead. 



We found out our daughter was 2e when on a bus ride in China.  We began homeschooling early on.

    Homeschooling is indeed a great way to avoid the competition, the comparisons, the labels and the emotional pot holes gifted children will likely experience in public schools. Thanks for all of the great resources!

      Thanks, Celi, for stopping by and leaving your comment. I am excited to hear that you are working on a book on giftedness. That will be a super resource for all of us with gifted, or 2e children.
