and it didn't work out this time.

But I still feel that if we nurture our most gifted minds --

Janine, when I was a kid,
03ea758b-a1d4-4fb9-84f2-4ea7e71f2c58.gif
I didn't get into the gifted program.
7a1b0a7a-a0e2-41df-bf49-fb6fd57a2fb8.gif
Like, not even close.
7cc7b724-710f-4a00-8a92-9165e669ee3d.gif
It made me feel like school was only for kids
ac5e51c4-a833-44df-abbe-4405d4e72247.gif
who were good at taking tests, which I was not.
1495d5b2-f0fd-4fc4-a18e-b79547f80dbf.gif
So I checked out.
ea70cc65-adca-4913-ab60-19e4e6a3abb5.gif
I don't know what to say.

The point is, when you give some kids chickens,
82b5a65d-2f1e-4d8d-ab20-3e42b5efadfc.gif
other kids are gonna get snakes.
7a0ea8d4-ed26-4e24-8ac3-ca1c4091b867.gif
And if you get snakes for long enough,
3fdd79cd-3eb6-46f3-93af-9f9c782d7a5a.gif
that's what you think you deserve.
613e95c5-c4de-48fe-b466-36b409ee73e6.gif
And no one deserves snakes.
0ef27b6b-1cf1-4d9f-9611-341035bbd27b.gif
I get it. So then what do we do?
6a7eb156-ae05-4bcb-84b2-e837628c69f5.gif
I'm just saying that there's more than one way to be gifted.

Have you ever heard of Howard Gardner's theory
b61d2e0a-ae14-4a63-8e3a-c99947cfa5b1.gif
of multiple intelligences?
4f3f82b5-b610-4848-b1ea-dcbc3b5bf113.gif
Okay. So, look. Like, this kid here, right?
53fac264-e739-4a4a-baea-fad8d0cf9b93.gif
He may not be good at math,
07e2347d-34ad-49f4-8346-d4045e0bd10b.gif
but he may have naturalistic intelligence,
6fcff7cb-e992-4243-8a7d-e1b2ea09b54a.gif
which means he's good with nature.
3dfa5339-e44d-4e9c-a50e-a9ddd631b7d9.gif
-Okay. -And this girl,
eb02be3b-d351-47c1-abc0-3d7cf15a2adb.gif
she may have musical intelligence.
d0711d7a-b141-43c6-97a8-6884bb131603.gif
And this kid -- Okay. She's asleep.
42c59234-e515-4a1b-88fe-516ef96869ad.gif
-Yeah. She's out. Mm-hmm. -Mm-hmm.
a0f8f507-95dd-4fea-b5d1-79278ac8228a.gif
And look at that.
77bcfc7d-8a67-41d6-ad9f-6c035112a306.gif
This kid has custodial intelligence.
108d2a6a-e6c9-422a-8ab5-40a656af0110.gif
You said there was eight eggs, right?
fc0bc8b7-e5d3-4fff-aee5-504a6af106e4.gif
-Yeah. -Well, we got six snakes.
e4317680-69ed-44b9-90db-d5ca92f15d0b.gif
That leaves two snakes.
3f2de344-3eb0-4090-8644-ec1bffd0a077.gif
Yes, Sydnee. That's correct.

Great job.

Hi.
686f6e2c-8e4d-4917-bb6d-5f7ced94f870.gif
Melissa, it's Thursday.
63b6e45f-b919-475f-a981-3d15d1ef08eb.gif
Are you ready to see your man?
78f9dfb8-b11b-4b05-ac69-01f93fb8730d.gif
Oh, come on, Barb. Let it go. I'm not ready.
cfa43873-bcd1-4ebd-a1af-a34219508d7c.gif
Melissa Ann Schemmenti, I know you,
4088adca-60aa-4d53-8ccb-d4cd5e27d942.gif
and you are not ready
383236d4-7eca-46b4-aec1-a71c74ef665e.gif
because you are telling yourself you are not ready.
42ff129e-739b-4f6a-81c5-1c56fd8c95a6.gif
But okay. Do what you want to do.
3ea04c4d-8ff8-4236-b4bb-fa07d48ea850.gif
Hey, you.
e49be582-f9ae-403a-a875-4c0863329c5d.gif
JOE: You callin' about the timeshare?
a84d987c-9219-437b-85ef-492715824a7e.gif
I was gonna use it in June.
ebbf9a0e-368e-4613-b63c-635439f2f42f.gif
Yeah. No, no, no, no. It's something else.
961e7f88-5d91-4997-a761-3ad0cf257fab.gif
But that's fine. I prefer July anyway.
1f0d7fb8-02d8-4037-ab0e-ad8a2460d6ab.gif
So, listen, um... you know after we got divorced
1af493e5-bea1-48ba-90a9-a21e45e56ffa.gif
and you started, you know, seeing Nina or whatever?
