DD1's latest G&T letter from school. She's year 9. Every year they get a letter saying what they are apparently gifted and talented for - usually completely different from what they were allegedly G&T for the year before. I don't know how they decide, unless it's by throwing a dice. She's been G&T for art before, for instance. She isn't remotely talented at art.
Anyway this year she is G&T for: verbal reasoning, languages and, wait for it, social skills. I mean, what the actual fuck?

I think you could be right, Sharbie. Or an international human rights lawyer. She told a boy off in class yesterday for making homophobic remarks. Grin
