In this month's Gifted Homeschooler's Forum Blog Hop we got an opportunity to talk about why community was important. Going back to my "mutant roots" let's talk about why Professor X, of the X-Men, needed a school for the gifted - and why us mere humans need such a community as well.
Hope you enjoy!
Remember - Mutant and Proud!
We love X-Men as well for the same reasons. We, too, are gifted mutants and embrace our superpowers and eccentricities unapologetically.
ReplyDeleteYes, there's a love-hate relationship with giftedness. It's even more thorny for 2e kids and parents. You can often feel like you don't belong to either a special needs community or a gifted one. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteLove your Superhero posts! Inspires me to discuss gifted issues with my son.
ReplyDeleteOh, I wish we all lived closer together and could visit and talk about X-men. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI really love your video blog posts Doresa and this one was really great! You made it so clear just how important it is for the gifted to find their tribe.
