I feel like half the people think they're former gifted childs or some other form of lazy geniuses
"Former gifted" just means some adults used to tell em they gonna make it big because they're special. And then in adulthood they struggle, either because they aren't actually gifted or the "gift" is just autism and nobody cares now that they're adults.
