Dr. Paul Beljan about kids with a 145+ IQ

Interview with Dr. Paul Beljan about a 145+ IQ and misdiagnosis. With advice for parents.

[Douglas]

Not respecting 'authority' is a good thing. The real problem is irrational adults, it's not on the smart kids to censor themselves for an irrational adult.

[DaveWard-xcvd]

"Different Level" is an understatement!

[MineCartable]

This is a great perspective that I hadn't considered, and fits in snugly with a lot of my own experiences.
Very enlightening video, and interview.

I am so glad we sought out Dr Beljan to evaluate our son.

I have an IQ of 135, am unemployed and live with my parents.

[humanistastv]

So trueee!! At the end someone giving sense to this issues!

I was in my thirties before I came across an IQ test on the internet. I tested in the 140's I thought that was just an internet site pandering to people so I went and took an official IQ test. Still in the 140's Then I thought about how my life had been and it answered so many questions. My father said college is a waste of time and that I should start work as soon as possible. I started bussing tables at 14. Started my own business at nineteen and was a millionaire before 40. Finally I knew why everything seemed so easy.

I wouldn’t mind having a chat with this gentleman someday.

[knowmekhan]

i honestly think an interview with the someone who is gifted would be interesting compared to this high praise saga

Isn't that dumb? I should’ve focused mostly on my heart"

[PersonwhousesYoutube]

I stopped listening when he mentioned "EQ".

[tunaste]

This video wasn't made for me at all.

[obnoxiouscommenter]

My God what's with some of these comments practically begging for validation
I'm only here to know if it is possible to learn this power. Or are high IQ people just built different from us plebs? Seriously, it sucks so much having a lower-than-average IQ. Past a certain point, effort means nothing but jack shit

[fractal_gate]

High IQ people are just like "high height" people - they are like anyone else, with their own struggles, issues, quirks, etc. It's not like they're some special species of human being. IQ has no correlation with personality and beyond IQ 120, achievement.

[KAIZORIANEMPIRE]

so you are saying being angry or not "apparent" reason means you qualify potentially as a bad person? that's not very logical. lol.

[pillsberrydopeboy]

You can tell the kid with high IQ that you should know that people listen to people who have DONE things over many things. Actions speak louder than words, you can’t outdo actual stuff being done. Did you do it or not?

[johng]

*I NEED HELP*
- so I'm trying to get people to guesstimate my IQ using feats I provide

*I would appreciate participants*

For example I specialize in both qualitative and quantitatively intelligence but mostly qualitative ( if you haven't already gaged that idea )
Some of my best intelligence feats is being able to debunk almost every subjective and rule based religion within a minutes of just raw thought ( and few debates to polish the well evaluated concept ) ( I also believe in a god but don't claim to be a theist )

Furthermore, every since I was the ages 1 - 3, I've been what I think is "smart" I was able to read and understand people's emotions ( especially my families ) I've been able to know the consequences to my actions before every being taught that what I wanted to do was inherently incorrect ( I just used context clues and related similar things to come to similar conclusions ) I was also able to tell time and know when things were likely to happen, for example:
- when the clock hits the 3 number, my mom will usually be home, or I will usually be doing so and so

So yeah I've been able to understand morals, since a very young age, but since I think in images and videos on top of being an intuitive type ( INFJ mbti ) I didn't learn to read until I was 4 or 5, even though my parents didn't necessarily teach me until I started elementary school

I'm also currently trying to teach myself calculus because the current math curriculum I'm taking is so boring to the point I just want to skip it entirely ( trigonometry and Algebra 2 ) ( I'm also 16 ) I find that I can skip alot of this and just catch in to the harder stuff anyway, not saying it's easy per say.. but it's much more fun because even though I'm in accelerated math classes ( meaning me move along 33% - 50% faster than normal math classes ) I still feel it's WAY to slow and boring.. and I think I'm teaching myself pretty well

~ so yes be sure to guess my IQ if u made it this far I will much appreciate that ~

[NomadOfTheWoods]

Nope. But I hear you. after hearing some things so much. enough intellectuals will learn to black out or burn out progressive thinking. this (might) come from a alcoholic mother or father/ learned behavior. needed essentials of certain life survival skills or aqquainted behavioral modals
