She is a Democrat. She should know better. She has a grandson who is extremely intelligent, light years ahead of most of the adults I know. I think he's in the 8th grade.

Grandma thinks he needs to go back to school ASAP. She says he needs socialization. He needs more stimulation. He needs to continue his education. Everything I just read in this post, I could swear I heard it coming out of her mouth.

I will be forwarding this to her.
Thank you so much for posting this.
