Age 11, began Harvard University's Extension Program he graduated at 16.
#17
I was homeschooled K-12 and feel adequately socialized.. lol

The only thing I regret about my education is that my parents placed no value on a college education and took no time to understand how it worked. They still place no value on college education and think my attempts towards a degree are ridiculous.

I would have been one of those kids who could have pulled this off. I don't think I'm a genius, but, I'm pretty self-motivated and thanks to homeschooling learned early on how to teach myself.

NOW, my daughter is absolutely not motivated at all and is not a self-starter. She just turned 8, I homeschool her because our assigned public school is D rated. I recognize that I will be standing behind her pushing and motivating her throughout her education. She simply doesn't have it. She's bright, she is in second grade and already reading at a 5th grade level, but, she's reluctant and requires a lot of hand-holding and external motivation. I simply wouldn't have the energy to MAKE her do something like take college classes as an 11 year old. Anyone who thinks you can force a child to do this hasn't had the pleasure of educating their own little hellions.. lol
