How to Recognise a Gifted Child

It is important to recognise a gifted child in order to help promote his or her intelligence, curiosity and desire to learn. Most of these children are never recognised and so their potential is not developed correctly. A gifted child is not a genius and does not have to know everything or do things out of the ordinary, such as play the piano at the age of two or speak several languages at the age of three. They are children who are basically differentiated from others in their ability to learn much faster and go more deeply into subjects. Some of the characteristics of a gifted child are:

1. They generally walk and speak before their first year of age.
2. They tend to use very rich language and adultlike vocabulary.
3. They easily understand and remember the information they are given.
4. They generate a great quantity of ideas and solutions to problems.
5. They have a well-developed sense of humour.
6. They have a great deal of curiosity, which makes them question everything.
7. They usually worry about the problems in the world.
8. They adore reading.
9. They like complicated board games.
10. They are leaders.
11. They persevere (they concentrate on a task and persist until they finish it).
12. They have a high level of self-judgment, demand much of themselves, and tend to be dissatisfied.
13. They prefer to work independently and do not need much help.
14. They are vulnerable to the rejection of their classmates.

Weaning

hakimi dah 1 tahun 7 bulan... tak lama lagi 2 tahun.. so kena fikirkan cara nak cerai susu dengan dia.... a few steps yang saya dah buat antaranya explanation to hakimi.. dia faham ke? rasa macam faham... sebelum tu cuba leka kan dia dengan benda lain bila dia nak susu... mcam bagi dia biskut ke... air lain ke... so far so good...

last sunday... cakap dengan hakimi.. yang dia dah besar, dah tahu cakap, dah faham apa orang lain cakap dan boleh naik basikal.. just like his cousin, irfan.. dia angguk kepala.. means agreed apa yang saya cakap tu.. then sambung lagi, abang irfan tak minum 'entek' umi dia.. (kimi kalau nak menyusu dia akan cakap nak entek') so hakimi pun macam tu, tak boleh mintak entek mommy... minum susu dalam botol atau cawan... very supprised tindak balas dari dia.. dia menangis, dgn mimik muka yang amat sedih sekali.. hehehe kesian lah pulak...

and tadik browse kat internet.. and i've found something.. (dari babycenter.com)

What does it mean to have weaned a child?

When your baby stops nursing and gets all his nutrition from sources other than the breast, he's considered weaned. Although babies are also weaned from the bottle, the term most often refers to when a baby stops breastfeeding.

Weaning, when it's the mother's idea, usually requires a lot of patience, and can take time, depending on your baby or toddler's age and how well and how quickly your child adjusts. The experience is different for everyone.

Weaning is a long goodbye — emotional, sometimes painful, and freeing at the same time. But weaning needn't signal an end to the intimacy you and your child have established through breastfeeding. It just means you have to replace breastfeeding with other nourishment and nurturing activities. If you've often nursed your child for comfort, find other ways to make him feel better. Read a book or sing a song together, or play outside instead.

When should I start weaning?

You're the best judge of when it's time to wean, and you don't have to set a deadline unless you and your child are ready to do so. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that mothers breastfeed their babies for at least a year. Despite what friends, relatives, or even strangers may say, there's no right or wrong time to wean. If you feel it's the right time, then it is.

How do I wean?

Proceed slowly, regardless of the age of your child. Experts advise that you not abruptly withhold your breast, which can be traumatic. A weekend away from your baby or toddler with your husband, for example, is not a good way to end the breastfeeding relationship. Try these methods instead:

Skip a feeding. Skip a feeding and see what happens. Offer a cup or bottle of milk instead. As a substitute you can use your own pumped milk, formula, or cows' milk (if your child is at least a year old). If you reduce feedings one at a time over a period of weeks your child will have time to adjust to the changes. Your milk supply will also diminish, without leaving your breasts engorged or giving you mastitis, a breast infection.

Shorten nursing time. Start by cutting the length of time your child is actually on the breast. If he usually nurses for five minutes, try three. Depending on his age, follow the feeding with a healthy snack such as unsweetened applesauce or a cup of milk or formula. (Note, however, that babies younger than 6 months may not be ready for solids.) Bedtime feedings may be harder to curb — they're usually the last to go.

Postpone and distract. Try postponing feedings if you're only nursing a couple of times a day. This method works well if you have an older child you can reason with. If your child asks for the breast, say you'll feed him later and distract him. Instead of nursing in the early evening, you could tell him to wait until bedtime.

What to do when weaning becomes a struggle

If you've tried everything to wean your child and nothing is working, maybe the time isn't right. Have you recently gone back to work? Your child may still be adjusting to this new development. Has your child been sick? Often babies who are not feeling well will want to nurse more often — in fact, breastfeeding may be in a sick child's best interest.
