Loves to talk back to his father and has studied Chinese
As a child, Gilmore attended Stanley Elementary School in Ardrossan, and at the age of 8, he entered Rangers Academy. To challenge himself, Gilmour took Chinese as an optional subject at the school, as opposed to the customary Spanish or French lessons. Gilmour's father, who played for a lower division team, inspired him and his brother, Javi Gilmour, to take up soccer and always asked them to develop strong fundamentals, for which he would "pick their brains".
Gilmour disliked his father's strict approach to education when he was a boy, and Gilmour recalls a competition in which he scored two goals and was congratulating himself when his father said, "Yes, it was a good game overall, but what was with those two passes?" Gilmour felt a rush of cold water pouring down on him.
For this reason, young Gilmore and his father often talk back to each other, but this process also inspires Gilmore's ability to think independently. His father doesn't always want Gilmore to follow his own views, but he always wants to hear Gilmore's ideas, and after an argument he asks Gilmore to apologize to himself, in order to cultivate Gilmore's qualities of humility and constant self-challenge.
