    I definitely agrre with those of you who understand about high IQs.
    I have 2 children-a 19 year old son and a 22 year old daughter. My
    son is of average to above average intelligence, scored well in high
    school, is very laid back, is very talented musically, is liked alot
    by all who meet him, and works at an everyday, ordinary fulltime
    job. He seems to be relatively happy in his life.Whereas my daughter
    has scored so high in testing that she is practically forced into
    special programs at college, yet she is nearly socially
    non-functional, with almost no friends, struggles to keep jobs at
    menial tasks, can hold lengthy discourses in literature, math,
    sciences, and theoretical subjects, and lives in her own little
    strictly organized world. Her intelligence level has proven to be a
    handicapping liability, rather than an asset. When she does manage
    to find a friend, it usually doesn't last long, and those who have
    stuck around, are all ones that most of us would consider to be
    extreme pocket-protector wearing nerds- those who can hold the same
    kinds of discussions. Generally we believe that even when she is
    trying her best to fit in, she tends to intellectually intimidate
    people subconsciously. After seeing her struggles in life, I
    wouldn't wish super intelligence on anyone.
