********************Myth 7: Gifted children are glowing with psychological health.
The Reality: As with a disability, giftedness can lead to unhappiness and social isolation. With adult minds in children's bodies, profoundly gifted children tend to be persecuted by other children. They tend to find little commonality with their age peers, relating to older children or adults. ************************************************** *
- myth #2 , is talking about talented children, like those who excell in tenis, in arts, music, It just says thay talented children face the sames problems as the gifted children.
