It got me worried to listen to her mother strongly saying she is so mature and stuff. Because she is not mature at all, and this can become a big problem later. Being able to retain and repeat lots of information can make a kid be gifted but does not make them mature. And you can tell by her demeanor and facial expressions how much she feels good and superior for saying "smart things" and the response she gets from people. I hope she can get to develope great social skills and emotional inteligence too. Kids who grow up thinking they are so much better than everyone else can experience horrible things in real life out there

Yeah, emphasising to a child that they are so mature and even going on to leave the child to raise itself can lead to accidental emotional neglect, but we do see her having fun with her parents so I don't think she's internalising it that badly

In my case it was different, my father was taught that you have to work hard in life, and he worked so much that he forgot how beautiful life is and how much courage you need to keep going with your goals. On the other hand, his mother taught her not to be depressed because he felt inferior to others.
@justinAclark2075
@justinAclark2075 Ай бұрын
@almasanta yeah hard work can definitely be overdone. I'm just talking about the tendency for children who overachieve to wind up depressed as adults. When you believe things happen because you are smart, you lose motivation when things get difficult, because you feel like obstacles are something you either can or cannot overcome, based on how smart you are. But when you believe things happen because of your hard work, then you're less likely to lose motivation, because you see that all obstacles can be overcome by anyone, and it's merely a matter of your hard work and concentration.

I can't see any reason at all why this girl would end up unmotivated and depressed. Her imagination alone will keep her well entertained. I'm on the spectrum and have a high IQ. My IQ is at the average level of scientists. My daughter was offered mensa school each weekend as she is very high IQ though not autistic.. my daughter could write her name "Celeste" at the age of two and do 60 piece jigsaws at that age.. my daughter ended up skipping two years of school. I had to take her out of school for a couple of years as she was bored there (three years ahead of the other kids her age. doing grade 3 stuff at 4 years old). My daughter has never been depressed.. she's adult now, everything comes easy to her. I hardly ever at all get depressed either and always got too much I'm wanting to do.

I have aspergers and according to the online Norwegian Mensa test my IQ is 135 and I place in the 99th percentile. But to be fair the test is mostly just logic, pattern recognition and spatial perception which autistic people tend to excel at. I personally was never very good at math and I am also not very good at chess. When it comes to physics I always struggled with the math part but the theoretical part was easy to picture in my head.

*Sometimes with very intelligent kids, especially when adults keep reinforcing only their intelligence, they start to focus heavily on proving how smart they are, often feeling the need to constantly show that to others. Sometimes gifted kids might unintentionally come across as a bit dismissive to others without realizing it since the child at some point starts believing that her intelligence is superior to anyone else’s, including adults.* Over time, this can lead them to place more value on appearing ‘the smartest’ rather than developing other important qualities, like humility and the ability to connect meaningfully with people around them which is very important with autistic children. Encouraging her to see intelligence as one part of who she is-not the only thing that defines her-could help her build a more balanced sense of self. This way, she can develop other strengths, like empathy, curiosity, and resilience, which are just as important in the long run. I’ve seen it be really helpful when kids like her are praised not only for their intelligence but also for their kindness, patience, and openness to learning from others. These qualities will add so much to her intelligence and set her up for strong, positive relationships with others.

I have autism and a "genius" iq too and it was really interesting seeing this kid having a really similar experience with learning as me. Her mom is making an ASTONISHINGLY big mistake with the whole "she's so old soul-ish and mature". I'm so so so so glad my parents didn't make that and allowed me to experience my childhood fully (other people like teachers, mentors and guardians made my ego and self-perception enormous though and it crushes me), her ego is going to crush her too when she grows up, a really common occurrence when the people around you inflate it non-stop. Especially parents, I truly hope her mom realizes this.

I don't wanna be that guy, but (of course there is a but) any concepts of a good childhood we might have, are very likely not fit to her needs/character. As someone who is autistic and moderately-highly gifted, I have been fundamentally incompatible with any concepts of a good/fitting childhood/environment, other people had. Now I am far, far away from being as smart as her and likely less severely autistic; So the discrepancy between my concept of a good environment is likely as far away from hers, as the concepts of neurotypicals are from mine. Treating her as a little girl, might cause more harm than good.

I hope people can understand that this isn’t maturity. I can relate to her experience because as a child I was in her same position. I was never labeled but was seen as gifted. I started reading very early and adults would always say I was an old soul. I’m working now with a therapist and have started to unpack that I was never mature but was just mirroring the adults around me. Which is what I see in this little girl. She is still an 8 year old little girl. Her mannerisms and way she speaks is on par with her mental age. She can hold in more information and learns information quicker than her peers but she still is just a girl. Which needs to be remembered because by labeling children as more mature you set them up to be taken advantage of. Which is what happened to me, I was 13 groomed by an older man. Maybe that’ll never happen in her situation and I hope it never does but it’s always a risk with labeling children as “mature”

⁠@@Chamomile369fr people keep saying this. But it’s totally normal for even neurotypical kids to display some egotistical traits. They’re expressing themselves and still learning what’s appropriate, ESPECIALLY for autistic kids. She’s also used to being heavily complimented due to her gift, so if her ego gets out of control, it is up to her family to correct the issue if it became one. Nourishing good self esteem early is important to raise a confident person, as long as it doesn’t go overboard, and overly snotty behaviors are checked. We don’t know what their home dynamic is like. For all we know, they DO work on her communication skills, which would be especially important for a kid like her. They could’ve even coached her on some rude behaviors after the filming stopped, but I really don’t think she was doing anything more than a regular, proud child would. Edit: “It's important to mention that although bragging seems unnecessarily obnoxious, it's perfectly normal behavior.

But assuming you’re unsupportive of her imagination and woukd rather have her be another typical burnt out gifted kid who becomes a doctor and cures diseases, then let me tell you this. It is none of your fcking business. Let the kid be a kid. Heavy expectations on advanced children like her are the reason why child su1c1de rates are high. If she wants to be a creative artist, then so be it. You are in no position to call art “worthless” or something that “contributes nothing useful”. Art (SEVERAL types, including music, poetry, programming, animation, etc) has saved my own life multiple times and has saved others too. It helps with emotional expression and has endless potential and opportunities. Autistic people are also more inclined with artistic creativity, so I won’t be surprised if that’s what the kid takes in the future. Don’t underestimate a large field that has helped the world more than you ever did and has been around longer than you have walked the earth. If you want more doctors, go be one yourself instead of bashing some 8-year-old on your phone.

I'm not a fan of the term gifted because it kind of implies that other kids aren't gifted or it can easily be treated as if someone who may have a disability may not also be gifted at the same time.

My daughter was like this growing up, like she had been round a couple of times before. Loads of frustration as a toddler as her little body was not mature enough to do what her mind wanted. Told me at the age of 3 she was ready to be independent and live on her own. She struggled in main stream school, was excluded and studied for GCSE’S at home on her own, passed everything. Skipped A levels as she disappeared from home and school to live in squats on her own at 16. Finally came back to the family, diagnosed as autistic with masking as an adult and suddenly everything made sense. Sailed through a masters degree whilst raising the most amazing son of her own, now works as a health professional. Still needs her mother to help her navigate the world and still cannot tell time. Autism is an odd condition. Yes, most people do not see her autistic traits, OCD etc. as a mother it can be really hard coping with these children. They live in a universe of there own.

Got to 7th and School district said they couldn't Meet his academic needs and enrolled him in college. He's 19 and a senior in University getting his degree in Physics research with minors in chemistry and Math. My son is Autistic, has super social anxiety, ADHD, and Clinical, depression. He has no friends and is insanely sad and depressed. all he wAnts is a friend yet his social awkwardness is prohibitive. I would trade some of his genius if he could have friends. massive intelligence is not really accepted in a society that values sports, drinking, gambling, and entertainment over academic achievement. My son was tested 3 times before the psychiatric and psychological tests indicated what we always knew, that he's autistic, and profoundly gifted. This story is so much like my son's.

​@SunnySlays101 for me personally, my first course of action is to limit/minimize the source of overstimulation - ear defenders, a dark/dim room, stepping out of the room, have some water/a safe beverage or snack. If that's not possible, I try to release the built up stress however I can. Tapping my leg, fiddling with a fidget, etc. I also try to control my breathing/breath slowly and deeply, close me eyes, and try to ground myself and focus on one thing and tune out what's overstimulating me as best I can.

I was quite similar to this girl as a kid, not gifted by any means, but a very advanced vocabulary and the ability to verbally express myself better than most adults, cheerful demeanor, lost in my fantasy world. The danger of that is when people get the impression you're sooooooo mature for a kid, they unconsciously expect you to be able to match that level of ability in other aspects of your life as well. When in reality, you may actually have significant delays/disabilities in other areas, though they may not be as noticeable from the outside when you're intelligent or verbally very strong. So I wasn't taken seriously, I didn't get the support or accommodations I needed and looked lazy and like I wasn't living up to my potential. Dropped out of school at 15, was never able to get a degree or a job. 30 Years old, can't feed or wash myself, will never be an independent adult. Do not be fooled.

I believe that is because if you get a gift of any kind, you need to sacrifice something else. Clearly people do not understand that and expect you to be the best from the rest. As you grow older the sacrificing parts come into play and then you are worse than normal people. But it's ok. Enjoy your life. It moves at the same pace for everyone. Do not worry too much about people and society. Be happy with whatever you have :) All the best.

I am in a similar situation. Been obese my whole life, also dropped out at 15 (i had foot surgery at 13 that I never fully recovered from), have had a ton of setbacks from sickness (threw up every day for 3 years), and just in general I would be considered a "mess" to put it lightly. I completely understand wanting to give up, I too want to give up most days. My aunt (she's like my mom basically raised me) has dementia after her surgery and with all of my family on the way out of this world, I don't really know what I will do when they pass away. But let me tell you something man, the longer you wait, the worse it gets. You and me know it better than anyone else. For the past 5 years of my life I've done nothing but whine and cry, "Why me, why was I born? I was given the worst hand I could possibly think of, yet I'm supposed to continue on like nothing ever happened? How could I even function in the real world I've missed every single chance to make friends or have a possibility of making connections as easy as others do." For years, that's all I did. What did I get in return? Did I lose the weight? Have I made it back into society? Nope, and try as I might, even if I do, I waited too long to show the person who I love the most where I am at, what I became. Start now. The only things left to do are to start now and try and change what you can, even if it isn't everything, it's a lot better than staying in that hole you are in. Trust me, even if you don't think you'll sink deeper, if you do nothing, the hole only goes down. I hope you get out of this rut friend, remember we aren't getting any younger. Please update if you can, I understand if not.

Yeah. People talked about me like this as a kid- “like a 30 year old in a 10 year old’s body”, “intelligent”, “gifted”, etc (no autism diagnosis at the time, but regardless). The transition to adulthood has been difficult. I think everyone thought I would coast because of the perceived smarts, but that ended up not being the case. Once I got into my tweens and teens anxiety and depression became a big problem. I’m lucky my parents are still supporting me and are cognizant of these issues. I hope she doesn’t encounter such barriers, but important to be aware of in case she does.

​@@overgrownkudzu And another bad thing you can do to them is convince them they are always right. For one, they will be resentful of anyone correcting their mistakes in the future. Thinking you're always right inhibits learning process, doesn't make you friends also. I was the smartest person in my class (top 2% iq roughly) and I would always let other kids know that I'm more knowledgeable and smarter overall. That ended poorly. Also, highly intelligent people experience a lot of frustration with the world, or rather people and their creations, around them. So far I've found out only humility and patience get you through day to day. Or alcohol, although I don't use it outside being with a group of people I don't particularly enjoy and we happen to be at the bar. So, I really hope she learns that early.

@@overgrownkudzui think this commenter meant quite the opposite ! meaning her mother should teach her she's not perfect and that's okay because nobody is. obviously everyone telling her how smart she is leads to a higher standard than others and that could be internalized which is why she might not be able to admit when she's wrong.

I do agree with that since I was also a gifted kid and humility is the HARDEST quality I’ve been working on ever since. There are a lot of things I got a way with as a kid but also alienated me from people aside from already being an late diagnosed autistic … because it’s part of the social cues that we don’t know how to navigate and sometimes not even knowing that we are wrong is detrimental to our growth and it’s okay to be wrong, to treat it as a stepping stone to learn the endless possibilities to reach the correct or right info. Idek where I’m going with this anymore

It's been 4 years since I left. I'm 20 now and the only people I talk to is my best friend and his mom.
