How do we enable each gifted person to embark on a positive, authentic life trajectory that fosters their individual development?
Losing Our Minds: Too Many Gifted Children Left Behind explores how background experiences and opportunities during childhood shape the adult lives of the gifted children in 5 Levels of Gifted: School Issues and Educational Options (2009) as they reach adulthood. Especially for the exceptionally and profoundly gifted children, the importance of a “good fit” in the home, community, and educational environment matters greatly and play a significant role in their futures.
The book offers insight, as well as a practical metric — the Five Levels of Gifted — allowing readers to compare people of equal promise and differing levels of high ability as they progress on their educational paths. The book describes how deeply post-secondary and career choices diverge related to the subjects’ quality of good fit throughout their childhood years.
