they started maybe a decade, maybe two decades, ahead of everybody else A big assumption you seem to be making is that these kids will keep progressing at the current rate. I actually think for most of these kids, they will hit a plateau and exhaustion point a lot sooner where they may dabble in stuff they did not when they were younger. There is NOTHING wrong with that and I have been through this path myself. But it's important to understand that the direction and rate of personal growth is not static. Some of these kids may dabble in drugs tomorrow; some of their stoned classmates may dabble with startups when they are older.
