[quote=Anonymous]The word gifted is way overused, that’s a huge problem. Parents take something they excel at and call the child gifted. When it comes to a sport it’s called talent. All top grades the child is an excellent student. We have talented musicians, dancers, singers. The term gifted should be used much less often so not to water down the word. Truly gifted people are rare. They are achieving things years ahead of where they should be and are able to do all of their classes equally well in several grades ahead. Let’s at least give these kids the label they deserve without sharing it the very smart kids who aren’t on their level (although still impressive)[/quote]
