    Is There Any Hope For The Rest Of Us?

    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."

        When you're sad and blue, do like I do. Grab a stack of crisp $100 bills ($10,000.00 or $20,000.00 will do) and hold the money in your hand for a while. Put the cash away and go about your business, you'll feel much better afterwards.

            Daycare teacher, manicurist and cosmetologist all by age 19. It makes me regret my misspent youth reading books and pulling weeds.

              yes the child prodigy Dayton. 'To those to whom much is given much is expected' - it must not have been easy growing up for Dayton with so much pressure and so many expectations on her shoulders.

              Carl Sagan was also a cosmetologist, I wonder if she had a chance to meet him before he passed.
