10 Year Old Enrols in College (Mathematics)

[Taeldorian]

Awesome! That's some good news for once. Glad for her

[A dot Ham]

Whatever, I'm done with you. You obviously don't want to have any real discussion because that would, god forbid, make you actually think.

We HAD the discussion. Its over... you're still trying to pretend you're a nice guy though.

(1) You are trying to apply the typical/traditional career path to an extraordinary genius level individual.

(2) You are dashing the hopes and dreams of a child.

It doesn't matter what you say. You are wrong.

So like I said originally you have (2) options: own it -or- apologize.

[Garnier Fructis]

So like I said originally you have (2) options: own it -or- apologize.

Option 3: fuck you.

[A dot Ham]

Option 3: fuck you.

Strangely compelling. There's that superior intellect shining through you were so desperate to show me. I have to say I am unimpressed.

We had a boy like that from our middle school, but he was 11 when he went to HS for math and physics. He was SO angry when he only got a B+ in physics.

[Adam Jensen]

British people: Why do you talk as if there's more than one math?

I mean, there are multiple types of math, but it's all math.

We had 6th grader in our Calculus class... totally off socially. He would finish assignments in like 5 minutes and spend the rest of class designing made up sports teams and their mascots for different cities. Dunno what happened to him.

Thats amazing, it'll be cool to see where she goes.

The word is mathematics, not mathematic.

[Adam Jensen]

Mathematics

But it's singular:

Math is fun
Mathematics is fun

[Phookah]

But it's singular:

Math is fun
Mathematics is fun

Its just a culture thing. We call it math because its the shortened version of mathematics, they say maths because of the same reason, but tag the s on because you rarely use mathematic in the singular sense, hence maths.

Parenting: you're doing it right

[kail]

Wish her luck, really.

I've had 2 class mates in my dual enrollment program that were insanely young. Both were socially destroyed though. Hope the parents keep the expectations flexible.

[Erbel]

Good for her. Hope she doesn't burn out early, lose the ability to function socially worth a shit, or get slapped hard by puberty and all the crazy hormones and emotions it brings like most prodigies do. Statistics are against her but I'm rooting.

[Yvaelle]

So young and naive, lol

Yea - I gritted my teeth to not spit out my coffee at that part too

The important thing is she's a prodigy and her hearts in the right place.

Maybe she'll make the first helpful bank in history though - that'd be quite the feat

[Tailswipe]

Someday she will regret skipping her childhood for no real purpose.

[Rooflesstoofless]

Good for her. Nothing really of note till she begins accomplishing something without her mom and dad holding her hand.

[Powerogue]

It doesn't hurt to get a head start.

[Themius]

this kind of stuff happens all the time

im guessing its a big deal to you and other liberals cause shes black???
