“Homeschooler whose parents banned social media graduates college at 12 with 4.0 GPA.”
So what? She can’t get a job with that degree in unmentioned field (could be something useless). What’s she going to do, go on Oprah for 6 years or is Bell Labs going to illegally hire a minor?
These kids who get degrees super young make the news (ironically the kid whose parents banned social media is now social media famous for the next 15 minutes) and then vanish into obscurity. They get jobs as gas station attendants or become drug addicts or stack fruit in Costco.
“Just go into STEM brah!”
Yeah, like the masters degree in electrical engineering who is now shelving produce because it’s cheaper for a company to hire 5 H1B visa workers at their home country’s rate and pocket a profit than to hire 1 American tech worker.
“Just go into trades brah!”
Yeah, and fucking wreck your body before you turn 40.
