I was reading David Palmer's
Parent's Guide to IQ Testing and Gifted Education. This quote caught my attention:
It is known, for instance, that suicide attempts occur more frequently among young people who excel academically, are highly creative, and attend highly competitive schools.
Uuugh, all sorts of questions from that. Are highly competitive schools a contributing factor or is it just more likely that a highly competitive school would have young people who excel academically and are highly creative?
