I know but I'm trying to reserve judgement before knowing the actual conversation and full context. She's been a truly amazing teacher otherwise so I'm really trying to give her the benefit of the doubt and laugh it off.

I do genuinely feel sorry for all of his future science/math teachers. I suspect until we get to university no one is going to be prepared for his insatiable thirst for those topics and for everything he's absorbed at home via the internet and two engineer parents that love it as much as he does wink

aquinas - your stories always blow me away. DS was very speech delayed and had ~5 words at that age so we couldn't tell what was going on in his head. Occasionally we could see small glimmers but it is so cool to hear what your DS comes up with.
