“The surest path to positive self-esteem is to succeed at something which one perceived would be difficult. Each time we steal a student’s struggle by insisting they do work too easy for them, we steal their opportunity to have an esteem-building experience.”
Sylvia Rimm

“The developmental needs and tasks of your children should always be at the forefront of your parenting.”
Sylvia B. Rimm, Keys to Parenting the Gifted Child

“Enjoy and encourage your children's love of learning, but foster their play, responsibility, imagination, affection, and fun so they can grow as whole as well as gifted children.”
Sylvia B. Rimm, Keys to Parenting the Gifted Child
