			<description><![CDATA["The larger world does not connect ADD with giftedness at
all," Tolan
notes. "Occasionally they mention creativity. And ADD is now the
current
'in' thing to be as an adult, as well..."<br/> ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Self-identification as a gifted adult is complicated by the great
diversity
among the gifted adult population. What does a gifted adult look like?
Unfortunately, for many gifted adults, it looks like somebody else.
Using
a metaphor of Dots and Spaces, the author explains how we tend to see
our
own deficits (spaces) but others' gifts (dots). This negatively affects
self-esteem and often causes gifted assets to be viewed as mere
"weirdness."<br/> ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[
Unfortunately, the calls I do get make it clear that neither more
information nor a greater sense of community has eradicated parental
desperation.&nbsp; Life for highly gifted children and their families
can still be enormously difficult.&nbsp; What the parents who call me
are dealing with is pain -- often intense pain -- their children&#8217;s and
their own.<br/> ]]></description>

The experience of the gifted adult is the experience of an unusual
consciousness, an extraordinary mind whose perceptions and judgments
may be different enough to require an extraordinary courage.<br/> ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA["Writing about
spirituality
and highly gifted adolescents is a daunting task. It has often been
said
that individuals at the high end of the intellectual continuum vary
from
each other more than any other group, regardless of age. Extreme
variation
is true for abilities, passions, personality, temperament,
social/emotional
issues and life experience. It may be especially true about
spirituality,
which partakes of all those other differences and is so fundamentally
personal." <br/>]]></description>
