"We began to suspect my child's giftedness early on. He was incredibly curious, a voracious learner, and reached developmental milestones ahead of schedule... He struggled with emotional regulation, often experiencing intense emotions."
"If that sounds all too familiar, you may be raising what educators and mental health professionals often call a twice-exceptional, or 2E, kid - a nod to their complex, multifaceted personalities."
"These children have both a high level of intellectual ability coupled with a learning disability or other special needs... For example, a 2E child could have a high IQ along with autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)."
