    I agree, d, UCP forums are the best evidence that young age isn't a limiting factor on debating/arguing ability.

    At 7 tho he may lag all but a few on that score tho
    Best at 7 is his ego won't get in the way. As already said most of us at that age KNEW we didnt' know a lot and were sponges for those willing to inform. It's when most get to 16 that the inherent belief that all knowledge is already gained and all opinions are right is usually implanted

    " I am the only smart person in this world, because i know, i don't know much."

    From items I read ( but "dubious" soruces ) then he is notorious for it and being abuseive to those around him who have to cover it up.
    A 'professional' wrote that he was atypical alcholic bully in an article didnt' he ? Never saw any rebuttal .
