Gifted Children Grow Up by Joan Freeman

The differences between gifted and other children lie in their abilities, but the way gifted children and other people react to their gifts also makes their experience different. About 1980, Joan Freeman compared a group of children aged five to 14, deemed "gifted" by their parents, with two control groups of children, one matched for ability and the other taken at random. This book comprises the results of her follow-up study, ten years later, looking at their progress and the complex pattern of their experiences. It should give valuable psychological insights and points out changes of direction needed in the care and education of gifted young people. It is aimed at teachers, parents, psychologists and the general reader.
