Sometimes, when I hear the stories of child geniuses like Eugene Volokh (graduated UCLA at age 15) and Dayton (licensed manicurist at age 19), I feel discouraged.
DUC: "When you were a little girl, what did you want to be when you grew up?"
Dayton: "A zoologist."
DUC: "What did your family and friends expect you to become?"
Dayton: "I was a daycare teacher, licensed manicurist and licensed cosmetologist. I had done all of that before the time I was 19. I was expected to be one of those three. I had done all of that by the time I was 19."
