I wouldn’t want my child bumped up and going to college at 16 years old immature. The article is about a kid that acts as a tutor to peers because the coursework is already mastered. This is not a bad thing. Teaching and tutoring is a skill that needs to be developed as the child will likely be filling a management role in the workforce. I would be happy with this role for my child and encourage further learning on his own time out of school. I’d rather he be helping others learn than moving on and out of the house when he is not emotionally ready. That’s just me.
I hope this girl is getting extra credit when she does this stuff. as for going to college, there should be an age limit as to moving onto campus and frankly anyone under the age of eighteen should end up taking courses online. The last thing colleges and universities and parents need is an Emily Beresfield situation on their hands.
