[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you believe any news from China? I don’t.[/quote] It’s easy enough to believe. It doesn’t even start until they are teens. I wouldn’t be surprised if they whisked ten year olds away to secret locations removing the ones who couldn’t handle the pressure and they go home as failures as children. [/quote] +1. Young children are identified by a rubric around the age of 5 or 6, separated from their families, then groomed to be super nerds. They do this with their athletic system, why not academics? Gifted programs have never had anything to do with US economic and military hegemony.[/quote] Gifted programs have always been useless in elementary school. By 7th or 8th grade some rise to the top. [/quote]\ Studies show that early acceleration for gifted kids is generally good for academic development with no harmful side effects.[/quote]
