[School problems in gifted children and adolescents].
Parents and teachers must be heedful of children with above-average talents. Typical behavioural patterns of very intelligent children must not lead to a lack of understanding and rejection. The abilities of these children must be encouraged in a sustained manner even at primary school age so that their special talents do not develop into resignation or physical or mental disturbances.
