We do a disservice to the child from the get go.  We could help the gifted child in elementary and middle school by teaching them about productive struggle.  For the gifted child, this means providing rigor and teaching them that failure is part of the learning process-nothing to be ashamed of.  We need to provide them with opportunities to take risks and support them there.
