Ups and Downs of Being Gifted

Being gifted is interesting.  On one side you get more respect.  You also get treated like a responsible person. In addition, you often are exceptional in a field, which makes carer path.   Finally you can get additional help from your teachers because they want you to do well.
On the other side, the adults expect a lot from you.  They pressure you to get good grades.  Finally, there is a lot of sterio typing about gifted people being geeks.  The gifted kids often get teased.  Children react to stress in a number of ways, and their reactions can include behaviors such as increasing moody or withdrawn behavior.  You also can become asynchronous, which means developing at diffrent rates.  Luckly this has never applied to me.  I have developed at a faster rate than most people, but my body developed with my emotions.   Overall I love being gifted.

Hey, I'm Brandan, and I am in 8th grade.  My favorite subject is science.  My favorite thing to learn about is Football.  In my free time I like to play tennis, through the football around, and play video games.  When I'm older, I want to either play tennis or football.  If I am unable to do that, I want to start a successful business.  I' m happy when I get lucky or if the Jets win.
