Former Gifted Child

What y'all think 'gifted child' discourse is saying: I used to be special and now I'm not and that makes me sad. What 'gifted child' discourse is ACTUALLY saying: The way many educational systems treat children who've been identified as 'gifted' is actively harmful in that it a. obliges kids to give up socialising with their same-age peers in favour of constantly courting the approval of adult 'mentors' who mostly don't give a s--- about them, b. demands that they tie their entire identity to a set of standards that's not merely unsustainable, but intentionally so, because its unstated purpose is to weed out the 'unworthy' rather than to provide useful goals for self-improvement, and c. denies them opportunities to learn useful life skills in favour of training them up in an excruciatingly narrow academic skill-set that's basically useless outside of an institutional career path that the vast majority of them will never be allowed to pursue. #school #education #discourse #swearing 142,521 notes Nov 9th, 2018 : t]

The former "gifted child" starter pack | /r/starterpacks

The former "gifted child" starter pack -Probably only got told they're gifted to boost their self esteem FAIRLY AVERAGE GOOD GOOD -Alternatively, got an A on a test they didn't study for and didn't realise it's a fluke -Didn't realise being called "smart VERY GOOD BELOW AVERAGE but lazy" as a kid is code for "you'lI be a dumbass as an adult" -Probably doesn't realise high school is designed so that the average person can do well no matter what, so doing well in high school isn't that impressive What their intelligence How smart they want level was actually like you to think they were in high school HIGH SCHOO EVALUATION- Outstanding Very Good Satisfactory Unsatisfactory How they feel about their life as it is now that they're in their twenties Probably secretly still wishes they were here because it was An itemised list of their other achievements if easier for them than being an being a gifted child is something they still adult, but also because they're kinda-sorta aware of the bring up 5+ years after they finished high mistakes they made and think they could avoid them the school second time round POOR EXCELLENT
