[quote=Anonymous] Another good excerpt from the article: [quote]The technical definition of gifted is “having great natural ability“, but there is much more to it than that. It is more difficult to define than one would imagine. [b]The main idea behind giftedness is that the child leads the direction of what they want to experience, rather than someone else.[/b] If at 20 months my tiptoe walking son had been coached, coaxed, and led to walk that way by myself or my husband it would not necessarily be a sign of giftedness because he could do it. [b]His doing it on his own out of natural curiosity or ability is what would make him gifted.[/b] Cited From: http://www.opencolleges.edu.au/informed/features/what-makes-a-gifted-student/#ixzz2YsLgrLaz[/quote] Thanks, OP!
