you are absolutely right. I don't think weight should be put on the word gifted. I guess I just wanted to know because it would kind of explain why I am like this. That's it. Also, maybe gain some confidence in my abilities.
I also think it's damaging to children to be labeled gifted as well.
I am in my mid 30's. I have had learning difficulties all my life. The way I was learning was not right for me. Even when I was in university it was a problem. Now I have discovered more things about myself and I am learning things my own way and I am finally gaining confidence. I need to know why something is like that before I understand any of it.
