Someone just posted it to the Hoagies page on facebook. Just the thought that for some reason there are people who feel the need for my child to hide themselves to make themselves feel better is sad.

The article isn't nearly as sad as the comments, which serve to prove my earlier point.

- "I have a relative who has a very high IQ and she has never worked a real job in her life."
- "some people get to be so smart they don’t have the sense to come in out of the rain."
- "I have a family member who is very intelligent, extrmeely well read but has absolutely no common sense."
