- Aperson4321 8y agoIn Norway saying stuff like that is sadly extremely politically taboo, so not every teacher will say that.
- toasterlovin 8y agoIt's the same in the U.S., for the most part. But they'll say it to you privately.
- avip 8y agoAcademic ability is a small and not especially important portion of what humans can be gifted with.
- toasterlovin 8y agoI agree with you. But gifted has a particular and widely used meaning with respect to children's education and that's the sense of the word that I'm using.
