[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 647274, member: 14557"] I do believe high IQ, especially with more challenging temperament type*, can be a root of certain behavioural issues especially with young kids and in group settings like school. Young kids, even the most typical ones, do not have much patience, nor are they very good at self-regulation. So if they are bored, they are bored and come up something to entertain themselves and often that something may not be something adults would prefer. Difference to our g f gs come in certain areas; these kids are not behind in skill development and their self-regulation etc. skills are at age level. I have known few kids like that, who seemed to be always in trouble at kindergarten and school and some were even very stressed out at home and behaving badly because of that, but after parents and teachers worked out the solutions so that kid weren't bored anymore, and didn't have to just sit and wait or do same, very easy to them, stuff over and over again, the behavioural problems disappeared. but difference to for example my difficult child, who is also high IQ, was rather clear in that those kids didn't have skill development issues mine had. *I have been meaning to tip you to this direction many times MWM, but have always forgotten. I think you could find temperament study that is rather hot research area around here in developmental psychology, quite interesting.
