Supporting gifted students

6:48

out eventually but

6:48

they don't they need as much attention

6:51

as somebody who's struggling to keep up

6:53

with a class because they uh disengage

6:58

in the same way

7:00

I was very lucky to be born with two of

7:03

the most supportive parents in the world

7:06

I would like to tell any parents

7:07

watching this speak to your kids they

7:10

have a lot more going on in their mind

7:12

than you might

7:13

realize very proud of you okay now let's

7:17

uh let's do something else what we going

7:20

we don't want him to become next

7:21

understand we want him to become next

7:23

happiest person in the world yes we

7:25

always support their interest nothing

7:27

else we never force them to do anything

7:29

think whatever they enjoy just support

7:31

them as a parent we think that's our

7:34

responsibility I hope that 9 or 10

7:36

year-old kids who see my story don't

7:39

take away the message that they're

7:40

supposed to be teaching at 9 or 10 years

7:42

old but I think that they should take

7:45

away the message that with enough

7:47

determination and enough passion for

7:50

whatever subject you want to go into um

7:52

Anything is Possible
