Well, let’s all keep our fingers crossed. Most of these child prodigies burn out early and wind up in the gutter at age 21.

I have a friend with a son like that. I used to teach him in Sunday School. He was so far above everyone he would act out. He’s a great kid now. At 14, he has been given a full ride to Med School. His parents are keeping him in high school for now.

What you call burn out may just be a different choice, different priorities.
