[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People need to understand that "profoundly gifted" is an actual designation, and that it sounds to me almost like a disability. One psychologist has defined "socially optimal intelligence" as the 125-155 range. Above that, you often have real problems. Think of it like height. Everyone wants their son to be 6-foot-3. Almost nobody wants him to be 7-foot-1. Ted Kaczynski had a 167 IQ in the fifth grade. How'd that work out?[/quote] Depending on where you live determines your gifted kid's rights. In Pennsylvania, gifted kids qualify for an IEP if their needs are not being met in the regular classroom.[/quote]
