Intelligence is such an overrated and fetishized trait.

Intelligent children require more mental maintenance as they're more sensitive, but they often don't get that because people think they can figure things out for their own.

So intelligent kids end up having to figure out more, with even less help and guidance.

Ultimately, intelligence is just a tool that you have to polish with the proper environment to get something out of it. Things like introspection, self-discipline, and resilience matter way more on the long term.
