    Oh Ed -- it's not her hyperintellect that is the issue; it is her
    lack of socialization.  As the oldest, she probably interacted
    mostly with adults when she was very young.  That tends to create a
    child who wants to please and impress, rather than one who wants to
    play and interact. 

    My son tested as a genius (he's now 21).  He was an only child, so I
    used to take him to the park every day to play with other kids his
    own age.  As you might guess, little kids are all over the map with
    some being nice, and others being little felons-in-the-making.  By
    interacting with a diverse population, he learned the social skills
    to be able to communicate with all types of people.  He still has
    those skills, and because of them, lots of friends. 

    (I have to say, though, he certainly didn't turn out to be the
    pocket-protector type.  He's very intelligent but very charming.  He
    is majoring in Information Systems Management; and at 21, he already
    has five patents and a musician girlfriend -- lol.)
