We have been delighted with the variety of blog posts contributed over the past week. Posts have come from parents of gifted children, teachers, researchers and advocates. We have heard from WCGTC delegates, from members, and from people who simply share our goals and are happy to join their messages with ours. Writers have joined us from Hungary, Norway, Mexico, Denmark, Vietnam, Israel, Ireland, the UK, the US, Australia, and of course from New Zealand where the 2013 World Conference will be held.
