Hollismason posted:gifted instead of some weird neurotic child with above average intelligence and emotional outbursts. I think this thread is posted in objective good faith. Children are products of their environments. The systems in place have check valves for standard deviation. Defining what that standard deviation is might be the key to this discussion. I think its closer in saying that its "more". Intelligence may just be one part of it. More emotions, more intensity. Anecdotally I was exposed to my school districts gifted programs when I was in grade school but I turned away after 6 mo when I found my classmates grating and obnoxious, also my parents had nothing in common with the ultra high achieving and /or wealthy parents whose kids went to the school. As an adultish human I have tried to come to realize I might have been a total pain in the rear end and probably am still a bit on the obnoxious side. Takes one to know one I guess. With that, rather than gifted I prefer spergy ladin sadbrain.
