Philosophical Practice as Coping Facilitator for the Gifted














Some people are particularly intense. They were born that way – intense, complex, and driven. They seem to have extra energy. Extra curiosity. They can take an interest in just about anything, it seems, submerging themselves completely in what they’re into at the moment.

From an early age, they surprise their parents and teachers with their strange questions; questions that lack singular answers. With their quirky sense of humor. Their precocious conscience. Their empathy – they seem to know, instinctively, what other people are feeling.

They’re different. They can be exhausting, demanding, and perplexing enigmas. They often amaze, delight and confound the adults who know, love and teach them.
