The authors explore the historical context and how it affects gifted students' psychological and physical well-being. Using Bronfenbrenner's systems approach, the authors examine events from 1999 to 2022 and how they may have influenced this generation of students. The authors close with ways of dealing with these changes by increasing an ethic of care for one another, dealing with the changes in our times with innovation and creative solutions, and focusing on ways to create a secure world for children that puts care for their positive well-being first.
