Puberty is a difficult time for every teenager - and their parents. This is especially true for the highly gifted. Because difficult feelings and social conflicts are extreme for them and shape their lives beyond puberty. The authors have been accompanying exceptional talents for many years and show proven strategies for dealing with young gifted people. The stories they tell are about sensitivity and stubbornness, envy and exclusion, self-doubt and great uncertainty about how things should continue after school. This book helps parents and teachers to understand highly gifted young people and to support their path to a successful adult life in the best possible way.
