[quote=Anonymous]There are some excellent videos on YouTube by people who were in these "gifted" and excelled programs who can speak very well to the downsides and risks of being one of these kids in these programs and then getting out into the real world. Read the comments, which are loaded with "gifted" people in their late 20s and 30s writing about how being labeled as gifted with high expectations hurt them. For starters, they feel like they can't make even the simplest mistakes, and when it happens, they completely fall apart. They can't ask for help either, since they are already supposed to know everything about everything since they're "gifted". It's all downhill from there. Many of them are unemployed.[/quote]
