Gifted and Talented

Have you ever wondered why Gifted and Talented are paired with Special Needs and Learning Disabilities?
This is because Gifted and Talented kids have special needs, additionally children with learning disabilities are also very intelligence!
Through the ages all societies have made the mistake of thinking all children with learning disabilities are stupid. They aren't, in many cases that test in the higher ranges of intelligence. LD kids and adults just think and process information differently, and often see things in problem solving that others don't see.
They are the one of the original "outside the box" thinkers!
