During the day I take care of my 6yr old step-daughter while mom works. The father, on his days, pawns the kid off on to others while he has to "work". My step-daughter was accepted into a gifted school program, but doesn't know basics; ie: street smarts such as telling basic time like 5 oclock 6, 7 and so on. I knownot to confuse her with 5:55 or 12:30. Is it normal for a 6yr old to not know the basics? I've tried a clock so she can move the hands around. When I ask her to tell me the time on the clock she gets it right, but when you tell her to move the hands to 5 o clock and so on she says it's 100 oclock. She knows her #'s and writes them proficiently. I'm just tired of her getting in trouble over what I consider basic knowledge. What do I do so mom is in a better mood when she gets home?
