Hmm...I don't really agree. Gifted people (especially HG+ people) think differently from almost everyone else, which makes it harder to fit it in and harder to recognize social cues. Depending on personal traits, it's also harder to accept the way that things are.
This might have more to do with social environment, moreso than an inherent inability to recognize social cues.
If a child's social group is pretty much in the same range of intelligence, social cues should be relatively easy to pick up. However, put the HG in with a bunch of kids with an IQ of 85 and you are going to end up with problems.
