[quote=Anonymous][quote]You can nourish the "gifts" while [b]developing the areas such as working with others, leadership, teamwork and social skills[/b] which are usually not as developed for those kids at the very top intellectually and which will benefit them more as adults. [b]Focus on bringing up the weak areas[/b] instead of the academics. Those will be easy regardless but without well developed EQ odds are good that the "gifts" will be wasted or not reached to their potential.[/quote] The information in this paragraph is so important, and so commonly forgotten. As parents, we are supposed to be rearing our children to be good adults. We need to be helping them in all areas of their growth and development and be careful not to focus exclusively on their academics just because they are very bright. [/quote]
