I have a 7 yr old daughter which me and my family thought has an IQ and EQ more than the average kids her age, but suddenly she lost her appetite to study. She started to talk at 10 months old and went to school at the age of 2 and has been accelarated for a year that's why I'm lost about it. I'll gladly accept any suggestions .

I don't have children, so I am not talking from experience but from observation. First of all how very fortunate you are to have such a gifted child. I don't think you have anything to really worry about she is only seven and is proably just "catching up" to her self and interlect. It proably isn't easy being "gifted" all the time. Have you tried getting her to talk about herself and her feelings. If she started school at 2 and she is 7 now thats 5 years for the average child starting school at 6 five years makes them 11 and alot of 11 year olds are bored with school and just want to have fun. Just a few thoughts to consider, good luck and best wishes to you and your daughter.

I think you're right, it might be to hard for her. In her age she should be playing and having fun. I'll try to talk to her this weekend and ask what she feels. Thank you!

I think your right, it might be hard for her. In her age, she should be playing and having fun not studying too much. I'll be talking to her this weekend and ask what she feels. Thank you!
