We get them every week on the local news.
Everything from teen movie makers to teen astrophysicists.
Who knows, this guy may find a cure for cancer in some obscure rain forest viper's venom.

Don't disparage it just because YOU don't think it's of any worth.

Personally, I’d rather read an article about a kid who is learning to do what he loves, and what makes him happy. This business about learning to do a job based on someone else’s idea of what society needs sounds a lot like something Hillary would be in favor of.

you might be looking for kids who are on the conveyor belt of American education... what this kid is doing and what he's learned to do will likely help him in any field he chooses... i bet chooses more than two in his lifetime... he's learned how to be a life-long learner... that is far more valuable than someone who goes to school only to learn to do a job...
