There are hundreds of QTs from Nazis talking about how they were the smartest kids ever but the damn (((education system))) hampered them, and anyone who doesn't believe that they're hyper geniuses is simply a seething lib.
You're supposed to get over the "I was a gifted kid" stuff by the time you're 20.
I think schools are natural as a key loci of socialisation for kids it's the place we send them for most of the time they aren't home.
other activities being available would also be good though
