[School problems in gifted children and adolescents]

(Schulprobleme überdurchschnittlich begabter Kinder und Jugendlicher.)

Full Abstract

Parents and teachers must be heedful of children with above-average talents. Typical behavioural patterns of very intelligent children must not lead to a lack of understanding and rejection. The abilities of these children must be encouraged in a sustained manner even at primary school age so that their special talents do not develop into resignation or physical or mental disturbances.
