[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know highly successful mom who moved to university town to let her child prodigy attend college at 12.[/quote] There are so many stories like this one - behind almost every child prodigy, Olympic athlete, etc, are parents who made very big sacrifices. [/quote] Except...the kid that attends college at 12 almost never turns out well. Yes and no...the founder of Tumblr dropped out of HS to create it and his parents just let him do that, but they didn't sacrifice for it. Most people probably thought they were terrible parents. Same for Dave Grohl. His mom also let him quit HS (and she was a HS teacher). Again, she was probably considered a terrible parent...but she needed the job and she let him start touring with a band at 16.[/quote]
