"The 2010 American Academy of Pediatrics Task Force on Mental Health reported that 37% of children and adolescents either meet the DSM criteria for a mental health diagnosis or show some impairment in functioning."

37% ???? What is THAT?

(So... the next time you see three kids together, think, hmmm - the AAP considers one of these kids sub-functional in some way)

Are we over pathologizing variations in normal childhood behaviour?

Sorry, I know this is slightly off topic as it's not specifically related to giftedness, but that paragraph really irritated me.

(Good article otherwise.)
