That, or they are put on a pedestal as a child but when the reality most of them will not really accomplish anything of note sets in, so does depression and everything bad that comes with it.
Or society is just a bunch of retards.

That goes without saying.

However, you still need to know how to go about living in a society in your day to day life.

Real talk:

Almost anyone with a 120+ IQ could graduate multiple years early if they have parents who pushed the issue. Factor in being at an "online charter" school and I would bet most kids could do this.

Schools don't push kids ahead faster just because they are capable. That's less revenue. This sort of thing is only prevented or created by the level of desire the parents have to make the kid seem smart.

There's a lot to being a well adjusted person. You can't just skip over stuff.
I saw a girl who went to college at 14-15, and she said she wanted to be a medical doctor and went to college and agreed to medical school at like the literal lowest ranked regional university in the country. Like starting out with a ceiling below her level at 14-years-old.

That’s impressive imo. I worked with a guy who could be considered a genius . He specializes in microwave ,and is based out of Vancouver BC.
His daughter graduated high school at age 13 ,and started university at age 14.
I thought that was impressive and asked him if that was a record or something , but he mentioned there was this kid going to his daughters university that was only 11 years old . The kid was going to specialize in rotator surgery.
I wouldn’t say these kids go nowhere in life

I'm not high IQ or anything but there is something that stuck out to me about how public schools are taught that destroyed me. Usually in the begining of the year I would be doing rather well in my classes as we were introduced to new material. Then, the teachers would start wanting to make the focus "task work" where you would just do "excerises" and then they would go into review mode. Review, review, review where you do task work from what you learned last year. I lost interest, it became mind numbing, and I didn't do it and my grade would drop. In public schools you only spend 10% of your time learning, the rest is just tasking and review. Why? Because they are trying to prepare you for monotonous jobs where you task all day. Tryign to make you a worker. Also so they can take about 4 years of education and spread it over 12 year grade levels. Also our schools love to focus on trivial information and memorization of things that don't matter. Why are presidents and other historical figures' birthdays so improtant and what town the were born in? Why is it important to know General Custer's birthday? Why are exact dates of events improtant? It's more improtant to know how to find information than it is to ever memorize it. Our schools fill the time and energy with complete bullchit and that's why we are getting mogged by most of the planet in education.

For a kid like this, that tasking and review would destroy his brain.

I agree with all of this, which is why I said fuk it and dropped out after the 9th grade.
