The child is able to do intensive work and seems to have boundless energy. The extra talented child is often enough a healthy child, but he ca n forget about food and sleep specially if he is absorbed in what he doing (playing the piano, painting, reading, working on a project or at the computer).
The child has an independent mind. It might seem like stubbornness to some, but this child really cares more about his own thoughts rather than what others think or say. He is continuously challenging his own concepts and re-shaping these according to new experiences. Add confidence and a lot of self-esteem on the list and you have a child who sees beyong the ordinary.
