An area that is not really covered in the text is the social emotional needs of the gifted student. In MY opinion, this is the area that we as educators usually look over the most. Statistics show that suicide, depression, drug & alcohol use and drop out rates are higher in the "gifted" arena than in any other area per capita.
1. Do you agree with these statistics? Why or Why not.
2. How can we as educators meet the social emotional needs of the gifted students?
3. Is the school that you are teaching in trying to meet the social emotional needs of gifted students? If so how.
