// Are you studying child psychology? You’ve asked quite a few questions about children.//
yeah I wondered a bit - BUT - then your qq should be more child-centred: a child is labelled as smart-Aleck, then what?
or even is it harmful ?
does it make a child wish not be intellectual - as in this can be turned on and off.

oh - - OK - - well in that case:
God it is only the English who see intelligence in their kids as a bad thing.... Chinese and Indians dont ....
It would be good to follow them prospectively ( like seven up ) - 500 smart alecks and what is their fate? - in lit - look backs show that great authors Austen and Dickens, werent infant scribblers. Their infant scribbles are called juvenalia and dont show signs of promise.
Jim 350 - I am sure scored 100 at skool and then scored 100 in maff papers at uni - but mathematicians arent usually creditted with being smart alecks. Oh yes ! my nephew ( maff at Cge) managed to get sent out of his A level class....I impressed on him that he was there to learn and not to irritate the teachers.
My brother was disruptive in class- but that was because he was failing and wished to cover up the guilty secret. We all of course knew
(Dickens never forgave his muvva for sending him back to the blacking factory - "‘I never afterwards forgot. I shall never forget. I never can forget,’ and she didnt look on him as a smart Aleck)
Heem - if you are the smart Aleck, ignore and get on with your life.
