Here's my 2 cents

None of this matters

All of the AAP/TJ kids will still have to go get a job and have bosses and deal with society

There are plenty of people out here who are smarter than their bosses.  The sooner kids deal with reality that the rest of the world doesn't care how "smart" they are the better.[/quote]
Here's my 2 cents.  Gifted, motivated kids will generally get a PhD or some other advanced degree.  They will not necessarily "go get a job and have bosses and deal with society."  Some will enter academia and become college professors.  Some will enter STEM based companies where they will be team leads and have a fair amount of autonomy.  Some will be medical doctors with their own practices or lawyers who will quickly make partner in their firms.  People who are gifted and motivated tend to do quite well.  They're generally not just cogs in the machine who have jobs and bosses and deal with society.

On a global level, it's important to develop our talent to the utmost.  China and Russia certainly are.

Clearly, you hate achievement and will twist yourself into a pretzel as to why effort and achievement are bad things that don't matter.  [/quote]
