The Gifted Parenting Journey addresses a previously neglected topic in the literature: the needs and emotional lives of parents of gifted and twice-exceptional children. This book guides parents toward achieving greater confidence and self-awareness related to parenting these complex children, and offers clinicians and educators a unique perspective on the parents’ role in shaping their gifted child’s development. The latest research, theory, and clinical wisdom are combined to explore the cognitive and psychosocial aspects of giftedness, effective parenting strategies, and the specific challenges associated with raising and educating a gifted or twice-exceptional child.

 

Upon completing this home study course, you will be able to:

 

  1. Identify various definitions of giftedness and how gifted children are viewed and identified as gifted  
  2. Understand barriers to gifted identification in the schools and how under-identification affects gifted children 
  3. Understand social/emotional characteristics common among the gifted, including the role of asynchronous development, overexcitabilities, and twice-exceptionalities
  4. Understand research describing specific characteristics commonly seen among parents of gifted and twice-exceptional children 
  5. Understand the role of self-awareness for parents of gifted or twice-exceptional children, how this influences parenting practices, and why support is so necessary 
  6. Identify specific expectations and emotions parents of gifted children and twice-exceptional children commonly experience and tools for managing these emotions 
  7. Understand parenting approaches that are effective when raising or working with gifted or twice-exceptional children
