4.0 out of 5 stars Wow! Finally some help. Practical, applicable advice., 17 May 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Survival Guide for Parents of Gifted Children (Paperback)
I bought this book by chance and it has been a great help for us with our 8 yr. old son. At some points, it's too "older kid" heavy...so if you're looking for a book w/ advice on dealing with young Gifted Kids this probably isn't for you. BUT, if you've got school age kids and are beginning to think about or are currently dealing with a gifted kid in school you can get a lot of help in how to deal with all the quirks these kids have and do at home/school. It's helped me help my perfectionistic son. Good luck!

4.0 out of 5 stars Gifted Kids - Help & Advice?, 17 Nov 2008
This is a good, easy to read book and as a previous reviewer suggested, is more biased towards older children, in particular education. It is also American and as such includes much information and help for Americans with no UK alternatives or references. I was hoping it would include advice to help me deal with my 4 year olds behaviour as a result of his 'giftedness' ie: the fact that he is nearly always bored and therefore often behaves badly because of this, his lack of excitement at things children normally find wonder in, his grown-up level of arguing/reasoning etc etc, and this does not do that. I'm still looking for a book with some practical advice rather than one just telling me that these are often traits of gifted children (which I already know). On the whole though it is very interesting and will be useful - just not quite what I'd hoped for now.
