its telling that every discussion about 'gifted kids' focuses on the gt program's effects on adults and not. gifted kids
#'im soo burnt out from being told i was smart all throughout school even tho no one took my real passions seriously': valid feeling#'anyway this kid checking out an advanced nonfiction book was soooo cute they probably didnt even understand it 🥺🥺'#< yr repeating the cycle by not taking 'smart kids' passions seriously👍#i was told in kindergarten that my book about drugs (already scaled down for kids) (i want to be a biomed scientist to this day)#was too inappropriate. it didnt get banned or anything i just felt really embarrassed and alone#the message was basically that i could know things within the boundaries of the school system and nothing else#and then i did well at school leading to the cycle of overwork that dominates 'gifted kid' discussions#but the expectation of being Normal and On Grade Level led me to be like. oh no however shall i spell 'together' by 1st grade#tags dont relate a lot to the body of the post but still. children are people
