red in mainstream education has been so watered down that children are not challenged and are not taught to think in our schools today – all in an effort to be "fair" to everyone. How is this fair to the gifted child?The author concludes by placing the accountability for educating our gifted children on families, schools, and society. He urges full development of all children with outstanding talents through the creation of "early and continuing enrichment programs". Through these efforts children would be identified early as to their talent or gift and their education would then be geared to develop that talent for the betterment of all. ReferencesGallagher, J.
