She speaks about gifted girls here and some of the pitfalls for them in our current educational system. As an ex-gifted girl, I found it very interesting! http://educationaloptions.wordpress.com/

I suspect the teen is gifted at some level in Reading but definitely ADD with some other issues mixed in. My friend denies the gifted part. But the girl totally underachieves in classes but gets good test scores. Good article.
