It is indeed directed at you, Carol. The reason being that it was you who said that many artists etc. probably have learning disabilities. With no kind of statistics to back that up. You still have not provided any proof that the proportion of gifted people with learning difficulties is any higher than that of anyone else.

I have read your posts and I know that you said parents should do what they think best. I am not disputing that in the slightest. I am challenging your statement that implies that people with learning diffiulties are more creative than people without. Not saying it untrue, just asking for proof. It was you who started that whole line of reasoning yet now questioned you want to go back to the main point. Fine by me.
