I think it's great that he found something he likes at an early age

It's pretty damn awesome, especially that he's also able to tutor, something that you would not expect from an autistic child.

Huge props for the parents for sticking with him, and I wish him good luck getting his doctorate.


actually autistic individuals have been known to be exceptionally good in a specific task/area, especially math/abstract related stuff

anyways, good for him

Yeah, the thing is hea only minorly autistic so he is still capable of interacting with society unlike some autistic kids ya know?
And he's capability to understand memorize and figure out is finominale if you ask me.

Imo, he just got a head start on all the information
it's not like anything new or amazing will be discovered by him since there are already many great astrophysicists and stuff

This cosmic dance of bursting decadence and withheld permissions twists all our arms collectively. But, if sweetness can win, and it can, then I’ll still be here tomorrow to high-five you yesterday my friend. Peace.

He didn't just get a head start, he taught himself things, not by reading but like at the age of one he was figuring the volume of a cereal box, by counting cheery os when he spread them on the floor, and at like the age if three he listened to a song by bathoven and apparently went over to a piano and played it.
