Abstract
In this study, I am agreeing with former professor at Purdue University, Jean Sunde Peterson, that highly gifted children do have social and emotional needs. I have contributed to her study by presenting a five-step focus group in order to improve victimization against gifted children in schools. I believe that if my intervention group is implemented, gifted children will understand about themselves and know how to avoid conflict with their peers. Additionally, the rates of victimization against gifted children will decrease within time.  I will also explain how this program is aimed to help highly gifted children's peers understand their social and emotional needs.
