Gifted kids have not done a lot of that trial and bulation work to discover who they are, right? Because actually, what happens as they get given a label, and instead of actually discovering who they are. They're told who they are; then they avoid all the experiences that help you develop a healthy identity. So i'm not a gymnast at this point. I'm not a hard worker. The more that my experiences narrow and the more i avoid, the more my identity doubles down,. triples down, quadruples down into being a gifted kid. This is ego, an identity.
