A Scientific Family

I always wondered where I'd be had my parents been more involved in these types of subjects and directly or indirectly involved me. At least my father being a network engineer put a computer in front of me to tinker with early enough. A lot of other kids didn't even get that much.

"family" business has a nice ring to it, but there is an undercurrent of nepotism and privilege. It's not quite wrong, but it's not quite fair shakes either.

This youngster should be evaluated relative to other privileged youth, not the average American child.

It's a bit sad that in lionising science, they use anecdata about an outlier to counter prevailing statistics... which isn't a very scientific way of doing things.

Remember to spellcheck, nasa.
