[quote=Anonymous]I entered 1st grade when I was 3. Entered college, Ivy, when I was 14. So did my brother, Hopkins, but he started school when he was suppose to but skipped high school. I suppose it makes me realize "we are what we are" and parents don't really have much to do with it. That hard work and self discipline is as important and probably more than intellectual gifts and what one does with one's gifts matters more than just having a high IQ. Overall, my parents didn't pay much attention to me or my sibs when we were children. I realize that my job as a parent is to be loving and supportive but my kid is his own person and be what he'll be.[/quote]
