Behavior Problem In Gifted Children's

Behavior Problem In Gifted Children's 

The term "gifted" is applied to children who learn at an above average rate. the child who have more then 150 IQ level would come in this category and this is really a good news for the parents who have such kind of child but this also bring special care and attention to the child. higher intelligence also create some really big problem to the parents here we have tried to mention some of the problem which we have seen in our clients.

Perfectionism

A gifted child may strive for perfection in all of his work, which can trigger him to the top of the class. But perfectionism can have its disadvantages. Perfectionism can sometimes lead to anxiety and depression. The constant need to be perfect at schoolwork and beyond can cause your child to feel anxiety before a test or project is due. Depression can follow a less-than-perfect performance, leaving your child upset for days following.

Sensitivity

Gifted child may sometimes suffer from intense sensitivity because of her knowledge base and acute senses. They might include a scratchy tag inside a shirt or lights that are too bright. This sensitivity can be related to a general over-excitability and interest in the world around her.

Restlessness

Being in a class that doesn't challenge him can cause a gifted child to feel restless and act out while in the classroom. When your child is always the first to finish an assignment, or his teacher purposely overlooks him to give another child the chance to answer, it can cause him to feel frustrated or anxious. It's why gifted children are often misdiagnosed as children with Attention Deficit Disorder or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, when the restlessness really stems from not being challenged on a daily basis.

Social Awkwardness

Your child's academic gifts can make it hard for her to relate to other children her age. When she is more excited by learning numbers or words, she may learn to take refuges in her books over spending time being social.  This, in turn, makes it even more difficult to see peers as her equals. This can result in paralyzing shyness or awkwardness.

LOW IMMUNITY LEVEL:- low body immunity is the big problem in the gifted child we are searching the reason behind that but this is also a crucial issue and parents have to aware about this.
