[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You don’t know who’s going to turn the wheel forward, OP. Maybe it’s someone has been identified as academically gifted, and maybe it isn’t. I have a “genius” IQ and while I am living a perfectly nice life, I haven’t changed the world. I certainly know people with much less intellectual horsepower who have had a much bigger impact. Gifted kids deserve a good education, but that’s because all kids do, not because they’re more important than other kids. [/quote] You want to play semantics. All the people who have had a meaningful impact on society have been geniuses in their respective areas. Not all geniuses will do something impactful, but you can’t if you don’t have the genius in you. I never said that gifted kids are more important. On the contrary, I said that they deserve their fair chance and should not be [b]sacrificed[/b]. If two more kids should receive services do one gifted one can, than so be it. Don’t sacrifice the gifted because you’re not exactly sure who the gifted are. [/quote] Sacrificed? Maybe parents of profoundly-gifted kids should focus on EQ... [/quote] Why??!! So your kids can get their free and appropriate education? Maybe you should focus on your own EQ so you can better understand all the people. [/quote]
