I just read an article about a twelve-year-old girl who got bored with high school coursework and is now attending a community college. She is applying to go to Yale for pre-med next year. The thing that I liked best about the article is that her parents said that others asked them "Aren't you rushing things?" Which is a pretty valid question, but their response was that it was their daughter who has these goals and dreams, and so they're just being supportive. I though it was cool that they aren't pressuring her, she's making her own decisions with their help. Sounds like home-schooling at it's best.
