I've been wanting to see an update on this guy for the longest time. There just seemed to be something different about him, even compared to other child prodigies. I thought Oprah would end up having the same sort of friendship with him that she had with Mattie Steponick. She said she'd have him on the show every year, but only had him on, like twice I think. Whatever happened with that? Maybe he didn't want to go on the show all the time? I wonder if he's ever had any neuroscientist interested in studying him to see what they could find out about his unusual learning abilities? Wouldn't it be the ultimate irony if the genetic phenomena he studies is actually the explanation for his genius?

Of all the things this brilliant young man could do he is choosing to fuel the pharmaceutical industry...so sad. We need more functional medicine doctors and researchers who are going to help educate others on how to PREVENT disease and discover the root cause of diseases. Not treat SYMPTOMS with chemicals.

Why? The field that he is working in has a lot of gaps in knowledge and a lot of the drugs we have now can/need to be improved. And if he can find what specifically needs targetting for each disease, it can be revolutionary in terms of personalised medicine.

I have a gifted son and I can relate to some of the things these parents worried about. I would really like to talk with his parents to see how they managed it all. Was his mom home and focused fully on him or did she have her own career. What does his father do in his career? I get a sense they are a Christian-based family. I;d like more details on his parents and how they handled this.

Idk, there's always this story that this hard-working average guy ends up beating the talented individual because he worked so hard compared to the lazy talented guy, but he's worked super hard and was already smarter than most people that were double his age when he was a toddler. I don't think an average person would really catch up to him simply because he's still trying to elevate even with the head start that was given to him

When you realize how little college students actually know, and even people much older, you realize that it wouldn't be that difficult for the majority of children if they were brought up a certain way and dedicated a certain amount of time to learning that there would be many more children in this same situation.

My parents took me out of school and "homeschooled me" after grade 4. I went to college years later with basically the same amount of knowledge but it wasnt a challenge really. So I agree with you but I think most children just want a childhood.
