Agreed. I had an EEP (Early Entrance Program) 14-yr-old in my English class @ uni. He got a paper back with a ‘B’ on it.....and proceeded to rip it up in front of the class. Couldn’t cope emotionally. Sad.
My girlfriends daughter just enrolled in a similar dual enrollment program in Florida. Her plan - Graduate high school with her BS, then go to the Air Force Academy upon high school graduation.
I’ve known some of these “gifted” kids. They are very bright and eager to learn. On the other hand, they are kids in that they are emotionally very immature. And, they can be very vain, self-aborbed, and feel that they are better than everybody else. They think that they are smarter than adults around them and can make others around them frustrated with their behavior.
