That seems wrong. I underestimate my son’s skills and therefore made him practice more than my daughter who was always in GT math.
If I had overestimated my son’s math skills, he wouldn’t be doing as well today.
I think it’s more an overestimation of their potential and ceiling, therefore they invest more time.
encouragement and additional advanced math education would go against your argument. E.g. more parents believe their kid is gifted and more of them push their kid or explore opportunities for the kid to get better education in the subject.
