I question the word "many".... How many, and who? Link?? Links??

I must not be a "conservative," because I've NEVER even heard that....but then, this is liberal land, and maybe the papers have never put that stat in....

And BTW, one of ours was in Gifted kids classes from 1st grade forward. He liked some of the classes, but wanted to be with his friends.... so we led him to some great extra-enrichment activities....He was one of the two County-Wide Scholar-Athletes as a Sr in HS....with many other achievements in the following years....

One of ours wasn't a wiz in Math, but now is a Corp VP for a major Fortune 500 co....go figure, is right.

But, oddly, many Conservatives are also opposed to special classes and schools for Gifted and Talented kids. Go figure.
