Very interesting. Particularly the difference in the middle to upper income kids vs low income.
"I personally feel children need the nurture of their parents and the home," she said. "Those early years, that's when they are bonding to their family. That nurturing, only the family can give that."
I tend to agree.

I'm glad someone else is noticing this. Momofhk didn't exactly make a good first impression when she first started posting several years ago. In one of her early posts, she stated that she had worked as a teacher, and then proceeded to misspell the word "curriculum".
I got a good hearty chuckle out of that faux pas.

Goggled that as well and came up empty.

Why? What will a link to DYA now do to demonstrate what it did 30+ years ago? DYA is the organization underwhich dependent children of military members (and DoD civilian personnel overseas) play sports (among other things, sports is not the sole activity covered, but given that baseball was the topic....)
And again, I haven't called you or your position stupid (feel free to show any link to the contrary). I simply said. Again. That girls played baseball before Title IX. Not that it was *more* common. Not that Title IX was *unnecessary*. Nothing, nada, zilch. All that? That's *your* invention of what I said and not at all reflective of anything that I have written.. Girls played baseball before Title IX. That is the sole claim I have made. And you agree with it, so what the issue is with that statement, I don't know and I don't care. I'm done now.

This statement doesn't make much sense. "There is no way ~ none ~ that the advanced learner has special needs tantamount to those needs that a child with a learning disability has."
Surely--with the vast research you have conducted on advanced learners and gifted children--you've learned that many advanced learners have learning disabilities themselves. So in your statement you could be talking about the same child, which makes no sense. In addition, plenty of children have mild versions of learning disabilities. I'm sure it could be argued that an otherwise normal child with a mild learning disability does not have the degree of special needs that a child who is say, three SDs above the norm in intelligence has.
Of course, maybe you meant to say that you were only talking about children with severe or profound learning difficulties complicated with vision, hearing and other physical disabilities?
