I don't think it's the gifted classes doing that, it's more helicopter parents forcing there kids to spend all there time after school studying or with tutors etc. Instead of hanging out or engaging in more social after school activities like sports.

You can be just as social in a gifted class as a regular class, you can't be as social at mathnasium as playing soccer.

Not really though. You can socialize sure, but you don't get practice socializing with people that different from you. You're inherently socializing in somewhat of a filter bubble.
