I went to college early too. Not 12 years old, but young enough for it to be a social issue. This is child abuse, plain and simple.

I went to university at 14 to study math, no problems. I had a good experience. I wish I went earlier, because years are worth more when you're young. The university environment was far superior, both socially and academically.

I went to college at 12. I enjoyed it, it wasn't abuse.

This kid will be fine.
