Not necessarily. Nobel Prize winners did not get 160+ IQs as adults, but as children. What would cause depression is having an IQ over 145 and not knowing why you are different. A "genius" would score 145 or over. This is 3 standard deviations above the mean. Only 1% of the population score 145 and over. Over 160 means that this girl is an extraordinary genius. True she may find it awkward in school with children who either do not see what she sees or children who have to work hard to learn. But she will know why she is different and it will probably not worry her. I attended one large meeting of Mensa when I joined in 1967 or so. And indeed some Mensa members were very odd people. What surprised me were the number of underachievers I met. I never attended another meeting and let my membership lapse. I concluded that many personal qualities are more important than IQ. Nurture is as important as IQ and that depends on how children are raised by their parents and teachers and other members of the community. Recall that some of the most wanted criminals and terrorists have high IQs. The highly intelligent wrongdoers tend to avoid getting caught.

The moment you can't perform better or maybe even fail at something it's easily depression and suicidal thoughts. Treat the brain with respect just like the organs of the body. Don't overwork it. And work towards proper brain health. Meet with psychologists, physiatrists, and other experts to assist in this.

Now I can definitely notice I do a little bit better than others with the same or less amount of studying, but it's pretty scary to see my natural intelligence slowly go away.

My smarts, resolution and creativity made me a favourite through primary grades, and got me into a lot of trouble in high school. I ended up in an alternate program. Wasted a year there (I was not disruptive, but I questioned everything and the faculty ran out of answers), so I begged my way back into regular high school and resolved to do what I had to do to get my Dogwood. My dad and I started a business the spring I graduated high school. Probably the best thing that could have happened to me. Six years in, and one of my brothers joined us. He had always been a sharp knife as well, had gone on to one successful career, but was attracted to our industry. Thirty years later, I am successful, mortgage free, have my retirement looked after, and make my own schedule, which is mainly devoted to the animal non-profit I sit on the board of. Business offers a huge challenge. As the world and economy changes, we have to change. Our father passed away a few years ago, and we’ve continued on, as strong as ever. I am the creative, passionate influence and my brother is the down to earth numbers guy, and it’s a fruitful, complimentary partnership. Too often you’re pushed to “go to school” when what you really wanna do is live life and be challenged. I was fortunate to have someone in my younger life who had been there and done that; my dad. He pushed me to get my hands dirty, put in a seventy hour work week, and build something I’m incredibly proud of. It’s still a lot of work, but it’s our deal, our decisions, our mistakes, our successes, OUR lives.

Whenever I tell someone "had a high IQ" they make fun of me. I was tested as a kid when I got into the gifted programs. It was extremely high. What I didn't know was that I had ADHD which got worse as I got older- wasn't diagnosed til last year. I'm incredibly intelligent for sure- but concentration and memorization plays a huge part in these tests. (which quickly evaporated with each passing year. Also an IQ just measures your ability to learn. If it's not fostered- you just got alot of raw material and alot of regrets. I honestly would have rather had the ADHD diagnosis as a kid. Wouldve helped alot more than just knowing I had alot of potential.

I was always a smart kid and my teachers never gave me much special attention in primary school. I still grew up learning that people don't like when you're smarter than they are and that its a lot easier to have friends by playing dumb. I didn't care enough about having friends at that age for it to matter to me. By highschool I found that I had to put on a real act in order to fit in with the "average" kids, most of whom were almost as smart as me, but had been taught very little. Being a smart kid is hard, but you might as well lean in to it. If you pretend to be average for too long you end up limiting your opportunities and being forced to keep up the act in order to get a job and fit in to society. Literally nobody cares how smart you are if you aren't a scientist or a doctor or some kind of proffesional scholar. The problem is, you will always know that you could have done more if you hadn't been afraid to be different. Smart kids are prone to ego problems, although I think they're just as likely to have underdeveloped egos as a a result of overdeveloped super egos as they are to become egotistical. Its important to praise a smart kid for other things besides intelligence, like compassion, hard work and integrity. That should be balanced with the same amount if criticism any other kids get for bad behaviour, although very smart kids tend to quickly learn how to get what they want within the bounds of the rules, so they might need less punishments overall. It is still important for them to learn to respect authority. Especially when they believe that they know better, because adults shouldn't expect rationality to be able to get them out of a parking ticket. Its also important to hold them to their own standards of inteligence, if they feel a desire to keep learning that should always be encouraged. Sooner or later you need to point out to them that most of their peers in school will never 'catch up' and that they should learn how to teach themselves in order to meet their own expectations for learning. If you ignore their intelligence they will just lose respect for you as a parent and leader. They wilk know they are smart because their peers will treat them differently. They ought to be proud of themselves for their accomplishments even if they don't get recognition from peers.

My grandchildren all read well above grade level when they were young. My granddaughter started reading at age 4 and was reading at 12th grade level when she was in 4th or 5th grade- the problem with that is, finding books at those high levels that are appropriate for her age is impossible. This was true of her cousin and older brother, too. She has been a bit ahead of grade level all her life and is now going into high school. If a kid is super ahead of their peers, the challenge is social development AND avoiding boredom, and finding ways to motivate them to enjoy learning, work hard and to know/understand that there are many things in life way more important than “how much you know”.

When I go to my guitar lessons, The owner of the store which I play in, and my teacher, both tell me “She’s a genius” and all of that. I tell myself, “Oh, it’s because they’re getting paid. Otherwise, they wouldn’t make these claims.” I will tell you this; I’ve finally stopped believing it’s something biased. Especially because my dad is a brutally honest individual, and he’s told me whether something I did was good or not in kind ways, even if it’s a truth that my brother or I wouldn’t like to hear. He’s got an IQ of 160+, too. He still says I’m a genius. If you have children yourself, Sir, raise them similarly to that in that certain aspect. Brutal honesty should never hurt a child, because it ends up helping them in the end.

Because IQ is measured compared to the average, and for kids that's the average for your age. Also it's measured using tests and puzzles which people are known to get better at with practice (in fact the original inventer of the IQ test never intended it to be used to permanently label people). So basically '3 year old with 160 IQ' just means a 3 year old that's doing puzzles that average 4 or 5 year olds do. Also there's no way of knowing if she'll keep being ahead for her age.

I think it's interesting that we worry SO much about 'age-appropriate social development' from K-12 grade, but then expect people to adapt and automatically know how to talk with people from so many different generations in the workplace. I'm such a proponent for multi-age classrooms because I think it helps to socialize kids who may be more cognitively developed and who still need to be socially challenged.

"She's way smarter than mum and dad"...lol no. Her 160 IQ is in the top 2% for her AGE. 160 child IQ is not equivalent to 160 adult IQ, because scores are only comparable on a percentile basis not an absolute basis. I'm not saying this to dunk on her. She's a very bright and gifted little girl and I hope she goes far in life, but for goodness sake newscasters, she's still *three* Well actually, 12 now...but you get my point.

I was constantly praised as a freakin genius and everyone thought I was gonna go really far 😂 Low and behold - come middle school I started doing average at best of times. When we had to memorise formulas, geographic locations on a map, historical names & dates, and poems off by heart (if this sounds weird, that’s the education system in Ukraine for you) - 🧠💨💩… I was labeled as lazy and a massive disappointment for wasting my potential since I was 10. Got kicked out of one uni and barely finished another after repeating half the subjects in my degree.

A lot of adults mistakingly assume that children with high intelligence do not need support in school or with homework. I got straight A's without studying up until high school when I started taking high level math classes. I still got decent grades (a B or a C in calculus is not a failure!) but my parents got mad at me while not giving me the assistance I needed. So I gave up on the idea of getting perfect grades and just focused on making sure I graduated college so I could have that piece of paper to go work abroad. I knew that after I started working, no one would care what my grades were. I was right. Part of being successfully smart is knowing when to ignore other people's advice or pressure, even your parents. Now all I want is to live by the ocean and study topics of interest in my spare time. Many super intelligent people do not aspire to be great, but to live peacefully.

My mom would continuously tell me that I was smarter than everyone, and it ended up making me tell everyone at my preschool that I was better than them. It eventually lead to me not having any friends until I moved away in the 3rd grade.

I'm happy that the doctor pointed out that she can't go to a normal school. It's important for her to be around others who also have a high IQ because those who have high IQs tend to be ostracized by the other kids. In general, people feel the most comfortable interacting with people of similar IQs. It's also extremely difficult on kids when the classes move too slowly because they are bored out of their minds hearing what they understand over and over.

The doctor is wrong. At age 3, all children should go to regular school, where they are encouraged to learn to deal with separation anxiety, develop their creativity, play with others, take turns, socialize, take naps when told, eat lunch and learn basic table manners, sit quietly and listen to a story, walk around the neighborhood in a group, play in the sandbox, have fun in the playground, and then go home. These are the most important life skills. "Everything I know I learned in Kindergarten". Robert Fulghum.

As a child who skipped grades in grade school, I would definitely advise the parents to try to get her into a school environment that is as normal as possible. Being moved ahead was very damaging to my ability to socialize. Adults can be years apart yet have no difficulty relating to one another but children who are just 2 years apart are worlds apart in social development. I was bullied mercilessly and it permanently affected my ability to make friends and feel comfortable around people my own age. There are many different kinds of intelligence. Mental I.Q. is only one. Moral intelligence and social intelligence are others. A person needs a balance of all of these to be whole. My sister always resented me because she had to work harder in school. But she managed decent grades and was inducted into the National Honor Society. I breezed through school without having to learn discipline while she developed skills that would serve her well later in life. She finally got a Masters degree at the age of 45 and is now a school principle. My point here is that intelligence isn’t everything. I admire my sister for her perseverance and hard work and also for what she has accomplished.

@M Shultz - I think every child has different needs, its not as black and white as some people may think it is. I was accepted into Mensa when I was seven years old with an IQ of 157. My mother did not let me attend, because she wanted me to have a normal life and be socialized (as you suggested. That was the worst parenting decision she could have ever made on my behalf. I needed to be around children who were exceptional like me, because it would have allowed me to feel less ostracized from society. I was bullied on a daily basis for being more advanced than my classmates (I was not allowed to skip grades). My Intelligence made me a target at school and over time, it psychologically conditioned me to believe that I was abnormal and it created a life time battle with self confident issues that effected every area of my life as an adult. I begged my mom every day for permission to be homeschooled, because I could always focus better if I was alone. The answer was always "No," and I was told that I just needed to suck it up and learn how to adapt to the school environment like everybody else. I learned how to adapt be pretending to be stupid, because that was the only way I could make friends at school. I became quiet and withdrawn and eventually even sucidal. The self confidence issues, developed into an 18 year battle with an eating disorder that almost took me life. The point, is that if every parent of a brillant child was to take the same approach/perspective that you are suggesting, it could potentially ruin the child's life permanently. The problem is that children who are born with an extremely high IQ, are very self aware! They know what is best for them, more then the parents do, yet their needs and desires are not taken into consideration due to their age. My, potential was robbed not because of my intelligence, but because of the way that society percieves how children should be dealt with. My story, is not a unique one and I'm sure thier are other brilliant children in the world who suffered, due to the ignorance of thier parents. Humans need to learn from their mistakes, instead of repeating the same old patterns!

@@cg3560 Their are other ways to socialize a child, other than forcing them to attend school. Sports, Dance, Art, etc. These are only a few examples of extra curricular activities that a child can partipate in, inoder to become properly socialized. Maturity, is a whole other topic and it is related to both life experiences and 'emotional intelligence', which is not tested on the IQ test. Some children like myself, are old souls. Meaning, that we incarnate with a much more serious approach to life in general, because our souls have lifetimes of experience under belts. We do not need a 'tour guide', which is basically what a parent is for children like myself. If, you have a child that has an IQ of 145 or higher, they are not going to be interested in the same things that a normal child would be. In, other words they don't need guidance, they need support. For, example: when I was nine years old, I could read and write at a 10 grade level. I was spending most of my spare time writing novels and studying psychology, while the other children my age were only interested in playing video games and talking about pokemon. I had no idea what pokemon even was, nor could I care less. The truth, is that children like me had nothing in common with kids my age. Most of my friends growing up, were 20 years older than me, only because I could have political debates with them...that would other wise be impossible with a child who was the same age as me. I get where your coming from, but like I said before, their is no one size fits all modality for children who do not fit the traditional mold, of how a child is 'expected' to act and conform to society.

I can't begin to imagine the things this girl will grow up to do. I think we all wish we knew how this can happen to begin with.

The way things are deteriorating these days in North America is proof that it doesn’t take much to be smarter than 99% of adults. In all seriousness, while the parents must be very proud of their daughter I’m sure they also have a lot of special concerns that average parents won’t have to deal with. Best of luck to the whole family.

Also, even if there is a difficulty in interacting due to the IQ gap, they are still children. Even with that they will still be able to empathize with each other. If you're only surrounded by people with the same extreme abilities as you, you'd probably more likely not know the situation with those who weren't as lucky enough to be gifted or even understand truly what they are going through, and that misunderstanding will likely continue to grow until they are older. That's my point in it.

She would be totally bored in a regular school.

Social and emotional intelligence is by far the more superior intelligence when it comes to being happy.

I worry for this kiddo. "Gifted" kid here, 17 years old. I don't know my exact IQ, I was "diagnosed" as profoundly gifted years ago though. Children will go through developmental stages regardless of their IQ, but the higher the expectation put on them the more frustrated they will be by their normal shortcomings as they grow up, it can really stunt their motivation and development. Also, academically inclined kids question everything, and I mean everything. Social structures especially. I struggled in school because I was bored and annoyed by the busy work, and I was constantly questioning my teachers. I was also a very sad kid, and fantasized about death from a young age. I know loads of diagnosed-gifted kids with the same experiences. That's what these parents should expect, not a super-successful future where their child can achieve anything. And they shouldn't be setting the expectations so high before the kid has a sense of their identity by inducting them into MENSA. If the parents are reading this: make sure your child knows she is always loved regardless of her performance and identity, that she needs to learn how to build connections with all sorts of people, that it's okay to struggle, and that there's more to her than being smart. And most importantly: teach her to work hard, pick herself up and take responsibility when she fails, and to be kind to others. All stuff everyone should pursue. edit: took off mention of someone else, don't want to speak for them

@@theirdarkmaterialsI think teachers just have a 'compulsion' to try to make other kids feel bad about themselves. What parents do now is.. they put iPads in front of toddlers and see if they can get them to read before they enter K, not realizing that its causing a cognitive 'delay' .. Other things like not teaching cursive anymore - its not taken into account that its also fine motor skills and cognition - there are peripheral skills associated with it. I would say the majority of teachers value 'reading' over the ability to complete tasks. Every normal person is 'gifted' they just don't realize it or don't have an opportunity to exploit their talents.

There ain't no social life for her. She can't communicate with her peers. Kids at her age believe in Santa, play with mud, dolls, and tiny cars; for her, that's unbearably boring. People with that IQ level need to find their peers who are at their level. The fact that she is a girl is not really the best, as in general, men want to dominate, to lead, and will discriminate her as a way to protect their fragile ego. I hope things will change soon enough so she won't become an adult in a society where people rather envy or hate people like her, than appreciate and try to follow their step or be great in other ways.

I can't disclose who this person was in relation to me for personal reasons, but someone very close to me in my family had around this IQ. Her parents had noticed that she was exceptional from her early years, so they decided to apply to a private kindergarten. To get into this kindergarten, they IQ tested each child for the admissions process. When they scored her, they told her parents that she should apply to the Davidson Institute for gifted kids. They also told her parents that she should be homeschooled as it would best suit her learning style or skip two grades because of her abilities. They decided not to have her skip grades or homeschool her because they wanted her to have a normal social life. The school she ended up going to for years K-8 ended up being a snobby private school with rich asian kids who don't know how to be kind and are constantly pushed by their parents to suceed in schoolwork. The people who originally told her parents that normal school wouldn't fit her learning style was right. Her parents still didn't regret their choice because she grew to be a highly social boy with high EQ. She began falling behind in school. She wasn't failing school, but due to all the kids at her school thinking that failing was under a 90%, she was. In the middle of her middle school years, she got tested again and they found out she was 2e or twice exceptional (you can google it). Because of her outgoing personality, she got labeled as dumb when in reality she was very smart. She is now excelling in life after those years of struggle. The lesson of this story is don't label people and dumb or smart. You don't know the full story. The other lesson is 87% isn't a fail, you don't have to take all AP classes, you don't have to go to Harvard and become a doctor.

This is great! My daughter just turned 4 and she too has been reading since she was two. She is fluent in three languages. Her first words was at 8 months old. She tells exceptional stories and mostly talks of stars and death. She's definitely smarter than even most adults around. I don't send her to school yet. Any suggestions on how to bring her to a global learning platform where a child is not made a star, but her privacy is respected while educating her further?
