or this...

the need for social acclimation of this individual?

He has progeria, which causes him to age like 12 times faster than a normal person.

People with this symptom usually live until 13...

sad but true.

yes, its very sad, but true... its happening more and more now adays.
theres like a 7 year old girl who looks 60+

its true its a disease called Progeria

Unfortunately that's real

That's scary ( no offense )

How are they born with it?

they know what the cause of it is at the genetic level, so there are treatments developed/being developed. Its a point mutation of the LMNA gene, replacing cytosine with thymine; it doesn't influence the transcription/translation process, but the change in the gene causes the splicing out of something like 50 extra base nucleotides
