Gifted elders (those who are both gifted and senior citizens) are one of the world's greatest untapped and unrecognized resources. Their needs are too-often neglected in today's world. Spending time with a gifted grandparent, or with a retired teacher, coach, or mentor, can be a win-win for all. However, that time can be even more productive if seniors' gifts are clearly recognized, if their social-emotional needs are addressed, and if families get actively involved with their giftedness. Social-emotional needs include self-revelation, perceptiveness, purpose-driven actions, self-development, self-worth, and interpersonal growth. Families can help by facilitating connections with people who understand them, promoting social and recreational activities, and helping maintain the identities of all gifted persons, including those with cognitive impairments such as dementia. Sidebars discuss how gifted elders can nurture their own social-emotional growth, how to mentor the next generation of gifted, and new programs for gifted seniors in the Netherlands.
