British boy, 3, admitted to Mensa

[Cato]

Poor boys and girls, they would always live in that exclusive nerdy club so he can never socialize with people like us, intelligent, wise and clever enough but still within the boundaries of sanity.

Ogre doesn't like nerds and nor do I.

Seriously, I think it's fairly likely that this tyke won't have much of a normal life- unless people stop coddling him and treating him like he's anything more than a clever 3-year old.

Perhaps 90% of my workmates are eligible for MENSA membership. It makes for extremely a intellectually stimulating interpersonal environment. I'm actually a bit scared of what it'll be like working around "normal" folks once I'm out of the Army.

That would of course all depend on the kind of work you will do once you are out of the army. Some private work places might offer the same kind of environment as you are now experiencing.

Yes well, the above comments are all well and good but we are talking about 2 year olds here, Good People. I'm sorry but I doubt very much that toddlers will be traumatised in life by having to hang out with the 'dullards' about them for the next couple of years. Give me a flippin break!

No need to become dramatic. However it could be bad for their social development. It is not easy being the smartest kid in school on those ages. In essence there not enough other kids around where you can relate to. And the other kids might pick on you, because well you are different.
