specialized education and gifted children programs are so fucked up I see the purpose but the execution and expectations are genuinely horrific I've yet to meet a single one of us that's doing okay besides from those who just reached their breaking point and chose to stop caring

#gifted kid burnout #It's so fucked up the emotional stress levels we're normalizing and the expectations to do the best and be the best when everyone #Has been told they're the best and special #Middle school high school college etc should be learning times yes and expose you to new things #The opportunities provided are wonderful and its really cool how many programs you can have access to #But the competition and stress shoved into a relatively short time period isn't productive for helping kids learn and try new things #Especially since they're expected to be a fully functioning adult afterwords with little to no prioritization of information #That could help with that transition #I'm very frustrated with the American education system I don't know enough about other countries education to comment on theirs #Cue rambles #ESPECIALLY NEURODIVERGENT PEOPLE OH MY GOD #I would like to say something about that but I want to do more research on that besides from me just speaking from experience and people #Around me
