We all like to think that we're pretty intelligent but keep reading and you'll realise that you aren't. At least not when compared to 8-year-old Tanishq Abraham.
Every so often a prodigy like Tanishq is born but I've never seen a child so well-balanced, polite and happy. He's not stressed or anti-social. He's just really intelligent.
What's even better is the support he gets from his parents. They don't push him to do more and they're aware of issues like depression that could become a problem. It's heart warming to see how loving and supportive this mom and dad are of their son.
