Nurturing Brilliance: Raising Gifted Children from Infant to Adulthood

A Parent's Guide to Understanding and Raising Your Gifted Child

By: Cynthia Webson

Narrated by: Mandy Grant-Grierson

Gifted children are beyond unique, although they are a significant minority. Naturally, a parent’s love and pride do not diminish or falter if their child is gifted: instead, it increases. However, as a parent, you require more than general knowledge and common sense to raise a gifted child.

Raising a gifted child takes skill and patience, especially if it is your first child and you are not experienced in raising such a child. They can suffer from social and emotional challenges that manifest in their behavior. As a result, it can be more difficult to help them navigate their environment, identify the best learning methods, and assist them in building social skills. Despite our exasperation, we ultimately desire to be perfect parents to the gifted child, helping them thrive with their talents.

To help your child, you must first understand and learn to recognize their skills early. Gifted children need extra help creating a stimulating environment both within themselves and without. To competently support them, they need to build internal resilience, strong esteem, and compassion just as much as they require a supportive external environment. Adequate preparation and gaining much knowledge will serve you best on the long and often arduous journey of raising them. For the sake of your child, you must be up-to-date with research, tools, resources, and technology to equip you as your child grows.

This book teaches you how to raise your gifted child from infancy. It is designed to meet you where you are, regardless of whether your child is a toddler, middle schooler, high schooler, college student, or adult. This book has a wealth of information. You will learn how to navigate the different stages of your child as they advance from infancy to adulthood. This book also contains tips and real-life scenarios that give you wisdom for handling other challenges with your child, including hyperlexia.

Cynthia Webson has the knowledge of how to raise gifted children. Her first book, Raise Your Gifted Child with the Knowledge of How They Are Special and Different received numerous positive reviews. It teaches how gifted children think and helps parents make proper decisions by knowing their thinking process. They require a much different approach when being raised: therefore, parents need to know those approaches.

This book goes beyond exposing the thought patterns of gifted children: it includes practical tools and resources to meet all your gifted child’s needs at home and in other environments. Because of their uniqueness and sensitivity, raising a gifted child is a lifetime job but equally rewarding. Are you ready to help your child harness and thrive with their gifts?
