Well from what I can tell, it basically said that it's good to let "genius" children skip grades if they're really bored in school. Also that it's important to give them chances to learn more even if they don't skip ahead in their regular class. So it kind of did tell you how. More to the point, it did not equate high achievement with intelligence all that much, it just pointed out that if you have someone who is intelligent and you want them to achieve alot in their future, you want to give them as many chances they can to keep learning.
That being said, if you want the child to grow up and be a well rounded and happy person, it's probably also good to give them the chance to do what they want to do even if that isn't the traditional definition of a high achiever. Although, being a complete slacker in everything isn't that great either.
