So why get gifted kids assessed at all, then? If a gifted label is the cause of all these problems...Or is it just when society judges them to be gifted that it all turns bad? I, too, am confused by the contradiction: it is bad to be gifted unless you achieve something. So keep your giftedness a secret until you can back it up with proof.
