Summary
According to the author, there are many parents who believe their children are gifted. Therefore, sometimes gifted children are a blessing or curse, because they need more attention and the disbursement of a lot of money. Also, most parents put their children in gifted children programs. There are many of America’s radical education critics who accuse public schools because "they have become agents of compulsory schooling strangely akin to sausage factories for both students and teachers which mean they didn't care about education.

Reaction
I think all students will be smart if they get strong basics in the first grade. So, If public school teaches students how to know about something, they should teach them how to do it. For example, If you want to teach your students how they can write long form, you should teach them how to write words. Also, I think they should not put gifted children in private class or school so, that students will feel they are different from other students. Anyway, parents should know how to support their children and improve them to be smart kids.
