| Although their views are all different to some extent, I
agree with all that has been said here by the likes of
Chris, Samir and Maestro. We went off topic after awhile.
I simply asked Why as a matter of curiousity since I was
struggling to conceive of any good reason. More so, one
of two things would happen - he would pass, or fail.
Remember, these exams aren't easy, even for wiz kid
geniuses. Even for adults with considerable experience.
If he was to PASS then that would likely do a lot of very
positive things for him, at least in the short term. But
it might adversely influence what he ends up doing in life
or even over the next few years. He may have ended up a
as a world's best surgeon but ends up consumed with
computers instead. You just don't know.
If he was to FAIL - what lasting, worthwhile, positive
impact what that have?
Simply, I guess I am not a big fan of making kids grow up
fast doing adult things. Let the boy play sport for
awhile.
