[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is this thread? Giftedness and autism are different. Some people have both. Some don’t. People are who gifted and highly social sometimes don’t look gifted because they focus their energy on high EQ activities like organizing and leading groups of people. The inward, logical thinking of autism lends itself to spending more time on academic activities and math, which can look like the “and talented” side of “gifted and talented”, or give giftedness more visibility.[/quote] Agree. Also want to note that gifted likely autistic people who went deep in one area of academic or industry work were heavily scaffolded by a mother or wife or secretary figure their entire life. Einstein’s scientific wife, steve job’s wife, Elon musk’s first wife and now compadre of white collared assistants. [/quote]
