Child Genius anyone??

[Allthingspretty]

should be interesting

Did Leo try to bribe the question master as a joke? Oh dear, that went down like a lead balloon!

Leo is so annoying.
Hugo is annoying too.

I think they might have been told how clever they are a few too many times!

Slightly poor listening skills! Think Leo needs a lesson in the fact that he doesn't know everything...

Oscar is quite cute. He seems not as annoying.

Oscar seems pretty normal

Was looking for a thread! Hugo is going to get a nasty shock when he's an adult and has to work and gets told what to do. Dh said he will have his own company but get sued a lot .

Oscar was just really good at the general knowledge and so calm.

I always wonder what the presumably not as clever siblings make of it all.

Yo, Oscar!

Hugo needs to be told he might be a genius but he's still a child.
He is incredibly smug.

Oscar was fab and so cool with it!

I'm disappointed that Hugo has done well. Am I awful?

Aren't some of th other kids sweet, saying well done as they sit down? They must be too normal to follow closely!

Argh!!' He's horrid and awful! The child next to him congratulated him and he just nodded. If he was my child I would have at least attempted to teach him manners.

I have to say I do like Hugo and Leo, as they are clearly naturally gifted, unlike some of the others who are bright, but coached.

I think they must be challenging for their parents and teachers though!

Leo really cocked that up!

No, I'm the same!

Still hoping, no.

Liked the younger sibling just sitting with his ds.
I'm actually really glad I don't have a child genius on my hands.

Yes stillhoping you are a wicked, wicked person

some of the children's egos are massive, surely thats a lesson not to tell your child how amazing they are every other second.

The parents all looked drained.

The gifted child sucks it all out of them, you can tell.

lets hope Hugos mum isnt a mumsnetter.

I feel a tiny bit sorry for Hugo, it appears his parents have indulged his every whim and never tried to discipline him, so he actually doesn't know any better.

He's in for such a shock in adulthood.

Hugo and Leo are walking that fine line between genius and insanity!

Throw Hugo out.

These boys are just so odd.
And irritating.
And smug.
And rude.
Do you think they manage to have friends?
Leo is completely exhausting.
