I agree with you here - if parents invest the time and are able to understand their child's needs it is not too difficult to find enough material online or actually offline. Taking your story as an example, I take it you are somewhat versed in maths yourself to appreciate what your son has done and probably assisted in the introduction to the subject matter at the time (I am making assumptions here - sorry if that's not correct) Let's say though your kid is gifted in other areas that you have no personal attachment to - how does one go about kindling that interest? If your kid seems to be great in drawing but you have no clue about the fine arts, how can one add meaningful stimulus to support and encourage further study in that field?
