POP,

Good career counseling? I had career counseling up the ying yang. I scored way off the charts in risk taking. There is no career counseling for kids like this.

And besides anecdotal comments, does anyone really know how radically accelerated kids do? Lang Lang spoke about prodigies in music and how very few survive in musical careers.

There is that one case of the girl I wrote about who finished Stony Brook at 14 and went on. She seems happy. She also got really into karate and had a black belt at 14. But I do not know what happens to most of them long term.

The only people I know personally that are in Nobel track in science didn't accelerate actually.
