Default Re: Skipping a grade?

A few years back we had a gifted 13 year old do an internship at my company. He was attending the University Of Washington (computer science major). He was a smart kid, but he was just 13 in nearly all other ways other than being extremely bright academically. He wanted to play video games like most boys his age, and he had a hard time being in work environment 8 hours a day. In other words, he wasn't a 25 year old college student at the age of 13. We dealt with him not as peer, but as 13 year old.
