Genius Child Kicked Out Of School, Could Win Nobel Peace Prize

[singular_me]

I dont praise einstein... most of his work is plagiarism and he was already proven wrong a few times ... as for nobel prizes, they control info circulating... but here it goes

-----------------
A genius boy whose IQ is higher than Albert Einstein is on his way to possibly winning a Nobel Prize after being set free of special education programs in public schools. His mother made the decision to take him out of the programs, even after having doctors diagnose him with Aspergers and say that her son Jacob Barnett would never even learn to tie his shoes.

She describes in her book “The Spark: A Mother’s Story of Nurturing Genius” that she was afraid of trying to pull him out of school. “For a parent, it’s terrifying to fly against the advice of the professionals. But I knew in my heart that if Jake stayed in special ed, he would slip away.”

Jacob was not thriving in special ed classes. He kept turning deeper into himself and was uncommunicative with other people. His doctors prescribed medical treatment for the boy. When he wasn’t in therapy though, his mother noticed him doing amazing things. “He would create maps all over our floor using Q-tips. They would be maps of places we’ve visited and he would memorize every street.”

Jake dropped out of elementary school in the 5th grade. His incredible memory allowed him to attend university classes after he learned all of high school math in two weeks. Now he’s on track to graduate from college at age 14 and working on theories to build on Einstein’s theory of relativity.

we live in a world where people can't recognize genius and mistake it for being a broken human. The unfunny side affect of living in an idiocracy is the low bench mark for normal. Good news though. Someone forged their own way. It's tough going it alone. Like that awake piece.

And that's why we don't recognize things from the past for what they are, we are not smart enough to know what we see.

Alo I am back from my vacation...this should make Cebu and others very happy hahahahhahahah.

I don't consider myself a "genius" or even gifted. Mostly just above average intelligence. While I was in elementary school I was held back twice, and told I had a learning disability. This was when my parents had lived just outside of SHITcago on the Indiana side of the border. They ended up moving me by the time I was in middle school, my first year in the new LD class the teacher had a meeting with my parents and said "Ares doesn't have a learning disability and really doesn't need this class, he just wasn't being challenged at the other school."

The difference was my elementary school was 90-95% black, while my middle school and high school were the exact opposite 90-95% white. There were 2 black kids in my class, both were adopted and got along better with whites than blacks.

I'm not trying to break this down into a white or black racial issue, but it goes in concert with the public school system as a whole. I got to see both sides of the issue while growing up. Black dominated schools honestly don't give a shit and like to "punt" a problem kid as a lost cause because they are so used to seeing it. A white dominated school they actually took time to explain the problem they were wanting me to solve. Once I understood it I could solve it in my head before even putting pencil to paper to show my work.

when in elementary school, my dyslexia was much worse than today...back then, many teachers contended that I shouldnt be pushed too far.

one teacher though mentioned the dyslexia, the others didnt care to know why I was slow. Reading out loud exercises scared the hell out of me... LOL

I don't get why he's up for a Nobel Peace Prize... can anyone explain that?

I dropped out of GATE (Gifted & Talented Education) in 6th grade since their "program" was not individualized to me. I hated school from that point on. Too much "programming" in the so-called "education" system. Dropped out of high school junior year. I started to like school again in college. 4.0 semesters in grad school.

This kid will likely be heard from again in future years, in a very good way.

Unlike the most infamous recipient, this kid actually accomplishes things. :)

Funny, I was in the G&T program at my high school too, learned advanced calculus and trig in high school, and graduated both high school and college with honors. To this day, I see things and think things through different than most of my professional peers. Thankfully I landed in a career where this sort of thing is highly valuable.
