Raising and teaching gifted kids--with their endless curiosity, humor, and empathy--can be wonderfully invigorating. It can also be lonely, confusing, and overwhelming. Parents and educators deserve to be in community with one another as they learn about giftedness and what it looks like in their homes and classrooms.
