[quote=Anonymous] Well, this is the perspective from the GT/LD side: 9 year old DS is gifted according to his IQ evaluations. He also has ADD. He is struggling in 4th grade. Yet his essays amaze his teachers and he won his school's Young Author's Contest. He thinks outside the box and makes connections no one else makes, which last are completely disregarded in school right now. Gifted has nothing to do with school achievement, OP. It's better during your schooling to be high-achieving! And in one's adult life? Who knows? The most important thing is to be aware that hard work is necessary for success in one's chosen path, whether gifted or not. [/quote]
