Gifted children can have any talent, but that won't matter if they aren't using it. So the first thing you need to do is narrow down the possibilities, but the most common ones are: art, math, literature and language skills. Once you already know this is where the trouble begins.
You have to encourage them and set up new challenges they can conquer. Otherwise they'll sit back and enjoy the fact that in that field they can do whatever they want because it's still going to e above average.
Now, let's say your child is pretty good at math, they are like 2-3 years ahead in it. What happens with them?
If your don't encourage it
Then they will strive for those 2-3 years, then still succeed because their brain is still wired to understand it. But slowly, once equations come up they will start struggling. Because they would need to study and they don't know how to. Up until that point they got effortless As at it, so surely, there must be something else at fault, right?
And they will spiral down, then finally decide if they will start studying or not. Likely the latter.
If you encourage it
Let's say you can attend to their needs pretty well, you provide them with exercises that are on their level. In this case they won't just strive for a few years, but for all through high school. And once they start learning something they don't get right away they will actually sit down and study.
Because they will know that if you want to learn something, you have to put effort into it.
So, don't just let your children become lazy. Challenge them. Tell your artsy kid to draw you realistically, introduce your little mathematician to what an x means in math and just generally encourage whatever they're good at. Because it matters.
If you take a quick look at "Gifted child" stories, then most of them will end up along the lines of "I wish I had learned how to study" and "I wish I knew it took effort to be good at something". These people started out with great talents and many opportunities ahead them, but they weren't encouraged.
Because if you don't stimulate their brains then they won't do it by themselves. So please, spend some time teaching your child academic stuff, it will go a long way and they will thank you for being by their side and helping them reach their full potential.
