Gifted kids ABSOLUTELY need to be challenged. The other anon who replied to your comment is spot-on.

If gifted kids are not stimulated enough, they'll hit a wall and never reach their full potential. As a gifted student, I was NEVER challenged in school. I just coasted along getting As with barely any real effort. I was never truly intellectually stimulated, and I was never taught to work hard. I never needed to. As a result, I've developed a lazy personality and have serious motivation issues, which are preventing me from achieving things and reaching my full potential.

When a child shows extraordinary ability, it must be nurtured and encouraged, not just left alone and ignored because the kid is already getting As. That is a surefire way to waste a child's potential.

My argument is that they need less attention than kids who are struggling.

As a result, I've developed a lazy personality and have serious motivation issues, which are preventing me from achieving things and reaching my full potential.

I'm not sure you can blame this on not being given the snowflake treatment all the way through school.

What else would have caused it? Getting an easy ride is murder on your motivation when you come up against something hard.

And honestly, every child, gifted, challenged or otherwise, needs the same amount of attention to fully get to their potential.

Do choices have to be made regarding priorities which ought to favour those with intellectual disabilities? Sure. But that's only because it's harder for those with intellectual disabilities to cope with life after school.

If that's your point, then well, I wish you were clearer about it.

I don't know, man. I'm assuming you hit a motivation block after school, when you were fully capable of taking care of yourself.

Then again, blaming your teachers in high school is a really smart coping mechanism. It's not your fault you aren't living up to your potential! Mrs. McMulty gave you too many easy math worksheets! FUCK YOU MRS MCMULTY YOU ARE WHY I AM NOT MAKING IT
