Nishi Uggalle, the latest crowned champion of Channel 4’s Child Genius show, is believed to possess an IQ “higher than Einstein’s”. Impressive as it sounds for a 12-year-old winning a junior Mastermind programme, but does the comparison with the infamous physicist actually mean anything?

It’s a problem today with our environment causing so much neurological damage. We have a lot of children who have very high IQs but are on the autism spectrum and might not be able to tie their shoes or eat in a restaurant.
That is usually from people who THINK they are so much smarter than anyone else. usually moderately high IQ people who are a little smarter than others, who think they are brilliant. And can’t wait to show everyone how smart they are.
The REAL smart people I’ve met are more inclined to listen rather than talk. I keep telling my children that “you never learn anything when your mouth is open” let other people talk- you’ll learn what they know (or don’t know)
My favorite kind of people.
My dad is the guy who developed the inkless check copy for Standard Register. He was a carbon research engineer who got his start in that department as a janitor. Inks and waxes for paper, autos, etc. was his life.
Just make sure you also tell your children not to confuse your advice, which is found in the Bible, with the suppression of speech they’ll encounter from the left and the deep state.
