Teaching children how to manage their intense emotions is one of the most difficult aspects of parenting or educating gifted children. Emotional Intensity in Gifted Students is an indispensable resource for parents and educators seeking to understand why gifted children can be so extreme in their behavior and how to manage the highs and lows that accompany emotional intensity.

Presented in an easy-to-read, conversational style, this revised and updated third edition pulls from contemporary research to depict changes in how we understand and support gifted children as well as an increased understanding of trauma, social-emotional learning, and empathy development. Chapters feature role-plays and strategies designed to show parents and teachers how to interact and guide gifted children in a way that teaches them how to recognize, monitor, and adjust their behavior.

Also featuring updated resources, worksheets, and checklists, this practical new edition is a must-read for anyone wishing to make a positive and lasting impact on the lives of gifted children.
