Thank you for posting the link, Dazed&Confuzed. I think the challenges of the verbally gifted (as defined in relation to the link) are greater in adulthood perhaps than childhood. I come from a proud tradition of "whistle blowers" who could see problems others missed or ignored, and the penalties to those who stand up (or stand out) in those ways are harsh indeed. There is no question that is a kind of giftedness, seeing what others don't and acting on it.

I don't think anyone cares about any "contest" relating to who has it harder (among the gifted). I would not waste time worrying about that.

Thanks again Dazed&Confuzed.
