Then he should get remedial intervention to improve his social skills.
I don't think that getting bullied is a skill issue.
If someone is being bullied because their parents have intentionally withheld age appropriate social opportunities I'm order to feed their own egos, leading them to have a deficit, then it is exactly a skill issue.
If, as hypothesized, the child was already behind in social aptitude, then completely exempting him from the world of children and fast tracking to adulthood is hardly the solution. It would only male the situation worse. Regardless of the behavior of other kids around him this is really setting up to fail down the road.
Why not? I don't think children really grow from getting bullied. If anything he is learning earlier how to deal with adults, a skill that is useful for your entire life. Having to deal with teenagers isn't really a problem that comes back later in life unless you decide to become a teacher or parent.
He might be, we don't know either way. Jumping immediately to the conclusion that he must be socially stunted just because he's doing an advanced degree at a young age smells like anti-intellectualism.
I was just replying to what you said which was further assumptions based on that assumption. I didn't introduce any of that stuff.
