[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 536617, member: 14557"] I don't know if high IQ causes problems but I do know it doesn't prevent them. I'm sure there are many wonderfully adjusted kids with very high IQs. I also know my kid is not one of them. He has been tested few times to have very high IQ (over 99,9 percentile) but he has never been well-adjusted. And he even doesn't have any clear diagnose to explain his struggles. But still he is socially awkward, not at all well-liked by peers, has behavioural problems, been always been very immature to his age, used to have serious truancy issues, seems to have problems with executive functions to some degree, developed gambling addiction before he was even 18 and is very prone to all kinds of bad choices. Oh and he lies, has an attitude, is stubborn, can have a very bad mouth on him and has history with stealing. Other than that he is a very lovely boy :thumbsup: No really, he is finally maturing and there may be some hope still left :winking: [/QUOTE]
