Gifted children require extra, enhanced resources. Yet the education system and society has done little to fulfill their needs and thus their lofty potential.

They are society’s profound philosophers, superior court judges, brilliant doctors, lawyers, politicians and scientists. ‘They are our future; it’s worthwhile investing in them because these kids will be leaders in whatever field they choose,’ says Dr. Jane Garland, director of the mood and anxieties disorders clinic at B.C. Children’s Hospital in Vancouver.”
