Sažetak
This paper is focused on the analysis of specific theoretical and empirical evidence on the challenges and risks of being gifted. Gifted individuals posses a number of unique personal, intellectual, emotional and social traits that can potentially make them vulnerable during their personal and social development in family, school, peer groups and leisure time surroundings. That, which is often considered a "gift", can in many cases become a "risk" for the personal and social development of talented children and adolescents, due to the misunderstanding of the concept of giftedness by parents, teachers or other educational experts, as well as school peers and the broader social environment. The risks and vulnerabilities often have negative outcomes for gifted children and adolescents, as they can lead to problem behavior, social isolation and depression, procrastination and general academic failure due to asynchronous development and increased personal and educational needs, as well as the importance of quality teaching and curriculum adaptation.
