GERRIC - Parents

Parents

Parents of Gifted children face situations that are, in many ways, quite unique in nature. Quite often, the accelerated development of the abilities of a gifted child, perhaps outpacing the child's physical development, can leave parents having to cater to a child's needs outside of school while still having to ensure the best education for the child in school. Further problems exist for gifted parents in the affective needs of gifted children where they may be strongly divergent to that of the normal population.

GERRIC seeks to provide for the parents of gifted children through:

Seminars held in January that run concurrently with the Student Programs;
a wide range of Resources; and
Parenting Courses.
