I have just started up a Facebook page for parents and families of HG, EG and PG persons, tested or not. We would love you to join up and join in. There are a few articles up now, so if you are wondering if this is you, the information is there. Feel free to add anything you would like.
As it is FB your name will appear on any posts if you choose to make any, if you would like to stay private on your comments you can message me and I will post under your alias if you prefer.
NZ is a small place and we are hoping to make this an inclusive community, so anyone, anywhere is most welcome to join in, in the information age the world is a small place - so if you have friends elsewhere please pass the information on.
We would love to join up with your new fb page, cheers, we have 2 twice exceptional or 2E children, one who is gifted visual spatial and the other Emotionally and Creatively gifted.
Great, there is also the group, the link is on the page. It is a closed group, so although people can see who the members of the group is, they cannot see the posts.
it then will ask you for your name, your e-mail etc. Then it would guide you through the steps, whether or not you choose to add a photo, you can start with the most minimal information above. If you are starting out I personally would not add a photo and set everything to private until you get used to FB and decide later what you would like to share (just my personal opinion, I have adapted slowly to FB).
Once you have done the basic set up the links above should work.
as previously posted we have the Facebook Page (updates) and the Facebook Discussion Group which uses your FB identity.
If you prefer need some anonymity please come and join http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HGplus/join You can be a member of all or any. Kiwi's are currently outnumbered, please come and join in NZ'ers!
Additional tips for setting up an account with an alias are on the FB page http://www.facebook.com/HighlyGiftedNzAroundTheWorld If you don't want your inbox cluttered up you can select digest in your options to get the daily e-mails (when there are some) or you can ask me to do it for you.
Hi, new address for the e-mail support list is: HG_EG_PG-subscribe@yahoogroups.com
Sorry about the address change, I was so stringent making the last group private that it became near impossible to join! So now your messages will be members only and the group can be found by others - and joined! If you would like to visit and find out more you can visit http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HG_EG_PG/ and click join if you like or just click the subscribe link above.
Any problems please click my name above and let me know :D
