UPDATE: Webb Talk Draws Engrossed Audience

Dr. James Webb’s talk “Parenting Gifted Children” drew a capacity audience to the Mill Valley Community Center as Jim worked though highlights of his encyclopedic knowledge and research on gifted children. The doctor’s 90-minute talk went two and a half hours as he passed along a steady stream of insights and resources for parents rising to the challenges and opportunities of raising gifted kids. We’d like to again thank Dr. Webb and our two co-sponsors, the California Association for the Gifted and the Gifted Resource Center. Watch his superb presentation today, and share ideas with other parents!

You’re invited to an important event:

Helping Parents & Educators Guide Gifted Children
with SENG Founder Dr James Webb (!)

Mill Valley Community Center

Some high-aptitude kids do great in school, some poorly. Some are joyful, some come home in tears. Many kids experience both.

Having a great brain doesn’t make their hearts any less needful; sometimes the opposite. As parents our challenge is to navigate their needs, and the usual sources of advice may not apply.

Since 1962 (!) pioneering psychologist Dr. James T. Webb has been understanding and serving the needs of gifted kids, their families, and their educators.

Always focusing on the whole child, in 1981 Jim founded the global SENG organization (Supporting Emotional Needs of the Gifted). He has written 70 papers and 6 books specifically on gifted kids, including the seminal Guiding the Gifted Child (1982). He runs Great Potential Press, the leading imprint for GATE publications. And he has raised six lovely daughters. Hard at work for our kids since the Beatles hired Ringo, Jim has seen it all.

MVGATE and its partners at CAG and GSC invite families and educators of all Marin’s gifted children to join SENG founder and gifted pioneer Dr. James T. Webb for a conversation, his first in Marin, focusing on your questions and concerns.  Register today!
