Grandparents are often the first to recognize giftedness in a grandchild, and connections between grandparents and grandchildren offer opportunities, challenges, and satisfaction. Based on his book, Grandparents' Guide to Gifted Children, the author describes ways that grandparents, with their greater life experience, can nurture their talented children without being pushy. Grandparents can be effective advocates to see that their grandchildren receive appropriate opportunities to fully develop their unusual potential. Besides offering social, emotional, and financial support, grandparents can encourage interests and provide stimulating opportunities to share adventures and explore ideas. Purchase the Recording!
