    Mensa is all nonsense, and when pressed Mensa even admit that the test is essentially ridiculous and say it's also some kind of "philosophy".

    I'm sure it's pretty impressive when you're six......

    Is there really a need to get your six year old tested for Mensa? Apart from boasting about it in the national press?

    I'm afraid to do an IQ test.

    In case it turned out that I was, in fact, stupid.

    Yes - worst thing you can do to a child.

    Let them be (the child) - he is just odd there.

    He would make money counting cards in Vegas, that's for sure. The father should get him to earn his keep.

    I thought the point of children was for them to make up for your failures by being successful at the things you couldn't do?

    I loved Cape Town.

    That cable cart nearly gave me a heart attack.

    It's just a beautiful part of the world....

    Bad idea skipping a class like that. Especially as he is only 6.
    IQ isn't everything.
    He appears like he could do with increasing his social skills. Not being mean but . . . Jumping a class ahead could be detrimental.
