      It honestly makes me worried for him. I was that kid and it’s a hard person to be. It’s hard to see and recognize all the bad in the world and know you can’t do anything about it. It’s hard to be plagued with questions and uncertainty constantly. It’s a blessing and a curse.

He seems bright, but the label "Gifted" and what it means for children who receive it has not changed, as you said it can be a blessing or a curse, so one should not diagnose, pathologize, or use it as a label for kids as you once were at about the same age.

What that causes is for them to seem not as bad as someone who doesn't find them to be normal might see them as. So, the kids find the bad things they go through to be bad but also just a part of their ordinary lives and hence managable, and what the 90 year olds have gone through to be unknown and terrible. And vise versa.
      Personally, I still believe life is, as a whole, easier today than it was 90 years ago, but there are different problems now.

      @Logan Paul my point is that you need to know how and when to use it. If you’re using social media just to gossip, take pictures of you looking for validation, etc. all of the wrong reasons then you’ll be pretty much unhappy. If you use it to communicate with family, a dear friend, work, etc then I don’t see the problem. Social media is like a double edge sword. It can be beautiful and yet can be dangerous and a loop of constant depression. I talked to this because of self experience.

    Neil is who we are before the realities of life kick in - before we come to know power dynamics, systems of oppression, the interplay between greed and self-interests, the upset caused when just & reasonable expectations are not met. We all are born with Neil's altruism, trust and outlook - but sometimes the energy necessary to maintain these invaluable assets in the face of life's many vicissitudes is an uphill battle.
