Re: you don't have to!

It is an amazing question isn't it!? Someone must have done a study on this ... otherwise there's a feckin' good paper there waiting to be written! I was hoping your experiences with talented kids would give you insight.

I have just remembered an incident that may go some way to answering my question. My eldest daughter was scribbling one day in the fashion of two year olds. The whole sheet covered in swirls and nothing else ... except a small gap just off centre. In this space was a circle with two triangles sticking off the top. In the circle were a few lines. When I pointed to it she pointed at one of our cats - we had about four then and they were a big part of her life, there was always at least one in sight.
