Who is also on a marathon of these videos and feel more worthless?
Those kids in his class must feel like shit knowing a 8 year old has the highest grade in there class.
Imagine how all the other students feel
Compared to the other prodigies he acts a lot more to his age...
hes a good kid, he dont act like a big head around other kids around his age, And he says his pleases and thank you's lol
Some people are smart because they were born with a talent for learning. If society wouldn't crush children's creativity and curiosity, maybe this would happen more often.
I can't wait to hear about this kid in the future.
This is a message to everyone here, if you have children or are planning of having children, PAY ATTENTION TO THEM NO MATTER WHAT, if they say school is boring then take it seriously, if they request to learn something different, start them off with something simple yet interesting.
"She's my sister, Tiara. She's six years old and that's basically it." I love that he's a genius but still such a kid.
I would feel really dumb if I was 19 and still in a class with an 8 year old.
He's so cute. And smart. Real smart.
Young Raj from the big bang theory.
I aced all my college classes and i thought i was smart until i saw this video. There goes my self-confidence. Btw, im really glad that the parents still allow him to be kid.
I love Tanishq's enthusiasm and passion for astronomy. He is absolutely awesome.
His parents are AMAZING
real life Sheldon Copper
And I thought I was smart. *sob
You can actually see that his own age limits him... cognitive functions are lightyears ahead of his speach center...
Tanishq for president!
this child is a true blessing from god!!!!!!!!!!!!he could be the hope of this world
If only my parents would've started teaching me since age 1
obviously hes indian...
He may be the only guy alive who could understand women.
8:08 "he can choose anything he likes, but as long as it keeps him happy" thats just amazing parental support. :-)
It's not just the children that inspire me, it's also the amazing parents who do everything in their power to assist their child in furthering their understanding. Great parents make great kids!
Isn't it amazing that concepts which many adults have a difficult time understanding come so easy to this 9 year old? That's wild.
I think he'd probably be a really good president
Inb4 this kid saves the human race from extinction
Usually when you see this kid geniuses they seem to be incredibly awkward and have serious social problems, but Tanishq obviously seems to be able to act just like a normal kid. It's a great testament to his parents, allowing him to still have fun and make friends.
i truly hope this kid goes on to make this world a better place for all human kind
Hats off to his intelligent, caring, and supportive family. In order to constantly challenge a person with such talent like Tanishq, they've must have been very active with his interests. I wish all parents all over the world would be able to do this with their children as well. He seems to have a very well rounded life; good for him! Best of luck Tanishq!
This kid is gonna help evolve the World.
Indians are smart
I admire his enthusiasm and raw passion for everything that interests him. He doesn't come off as smug/condescending at all, which is hard for someone who has superior intellect at such a young age. I can't help but think that he must feel so lonely bc he has a disconnect with his peers his age and also his classmates in college classroom Tanisq, I can't wait to see what you can do in the years to come! You are beyond adorable :)
I love how he said "its never boring talking to college students." How sweet and innocent. The college intellectual ambiance is relaxing, stimulating, & nurturing for both the body, mind, and soul. It expands & relax our minds. Whether you are 9 or 90 years old - learning is beautiful, calming, & inspirational.
This kid is absolutely brilliant and a great inspiration. The love of learning... doesn't get much better than that. If only this motivation could extend to other students.
The other college students look mad and jealous loool
Could he be any cuter ?
The parents are doing an amazing job keeping his momentum going and exposing him to a wide variety of subjects; also for giving him an way to socialize with kids his age which I feel is just as important. Seeing that his sister is always showing potential, I'd say we're gonna be hearing a lot from the Abraham Family in the decades to come.
he has a great personality! so humble about his success and a seemingly very happy and healthy little boy.
Very generous! The family is based in California, so not sure if they're looking at schools so far away.
Seeing him and the other kids really gives back some hope in this world
Why dislike the video?
This kid is a gem not only is he smart, but most importantly he is a humble person with good intentions to help out man kind in the future.
man i hope this kid gets the help he needs! he is awesome and he could end up saving us all one day. :) take care tanishq
wow he is amazing!
I really think if i was kept away from Girls, TV, Soda, Candy and didn't have worry about family problems and being bullied at a young age, i would perform way better not on his level but not that far apart... wish him the best !!!
I feel so stupid right now. He will do great things for America. =)
Oh my gosh i have never seen anything like this in my whole life, this is truly amazing
SHELDOOOOOOON!
What a brilliant mind and not only does he have the potential, his parents helped him accelerate his mind at such a young age. There are young minds that have so much potential, but the parents sometimes don't contribute or cannot contribute to the children's potential.
This kid is so inspiring its amazing really :P
When you love what you do it's never looked at as work. Like he said he does it for fun, I love seeing people so deep in their passion because they are truly happy and it glows from them.
This Kid Has A Great Talent On His Hands! I wish i was as smart as him! Im Proud Of Him!! He Will Make A Difference In Life :)
Was this supposed to be a compliment or insult?
Love him, and his amazing family !! Wish him the best !!
the ending of the video definitely gave me a tear in my eye... thank god for such opportunities like this for children of the world
hope this kid does great things
Being so young, his imagination probably allows him to grasp extremely difficult concepts. I bet.
Hope this kid fulfils his dreams. Schools can sometimes. Surpress a kids talent. I am glad his parents listened to this kid and supported him.
thanks thnkrtv :) I love hearing about these kids, restoring what faith I have left in humanity lol
Help me with my homework??...NO here, DO MY HOMEWORK!....and I need that back in 10 minutes....lol
WOW
Absoluely amazing. I hope to meet this kid someday.
kids like this are so needed for our future
This kid makes me smile.
Why don't neuroscientists gather all these human miracles such as prodigies and savants and actually do some serious studies.We could find out so much about the human mind.
i watch this with a deep sigh of relief. how wonderful to see that there will be brilliant human beings like this to pass on the legacy of this planet to. the world will not turn to shit as i'm old and greying after all.
Tanishq is not only a brilliant child he is also extremely handsome ;O) He and his sister are gifts to humanity and this makes me smile :O) Please spotlight lovely Tiara as well! She deserves as much praise as her brother (you go girl!) Bravo to the parents. You have quite a challenge keeping these beautiful minds stimulated.
i would like to recommend Jacob Samuel(Sam) ,He is an Amazing Child Pianist from India born with a gift of perfect pitch...Sam is 9yrs old...
I do see him being the president of the USA
It's good to see his parents are so supportive.
People like these make me have hope in humanity.
The kid is just lucky that he receives all this opportunities.Most kids his age don't get home-schooled, don't even get raised the same way. His parents can afford college.
The kid is missing out on his childhood. He even misses having friends! I'm sure more kids could be as smart as he is with the right parental supervision. You can notice that he is a child just by what he suggests sometimes. But the parents push him (notice the T-shirt he's wearing in the end and the quote, idea of parents?).
LOL. That was gold.
his parents are so supportive! this child has potential.
I'm excited to have someone like him amongst us. I feel like with someone this brilliant and such a positive person with such amazing parents that aren't so mean to him to drive him to being pressured into something he doesn't want to be I feel like the world would benefit with such a great youth. I really hope to see him in books alongside the greats. A new Tesla for our age! Maybe I'm way off since I'm not intellectually gifted as he to put in perspective where he stands but I love the kid!
Tanishq has two gifts in life:
1) His God-given desire to learn at an accelerated level (and therefore his ability to do so at an early age)
2) His supportive parents...it's clear he would never have these opportunities if it wasn't for their encouragement and dedication to him and his sister.
Remarkable. Much kudos to everyone involved in enriching this kid's life.
Man. Something makes me feel bad for this kid. *sigh* Like, Flowers for Algernon sad.
What a wonderful family. Alot of parents could learn from them
This kid is awesome! Not only is he super smart, but he's well mannered and seems really friendly. His parents are clearly doing an excellent job! :-)
Haha omg! American River in Sacramento!? I'm friends with a lot of the tennis players there xD, I'm from the Chabot College tennis team and we're close to the ARC team lols. What an odd coincidence the chances of seeing a video about a prodigy that goes to that school lols
Many little Einstein's yet no change of human circumstances.
this kind of thinking is what keeps the world round.
This was awesome, this lil guy is the future...
rajesh koothrappali ?
Faith in humanity restored
What a guy! Kudos to his parents and a hi five to Tanishq.
How could you dislike this? Some people are just sad.
I would feel so dumb and change my life plans if I was in class w this kid lol.....hope he does some amazing things
he's so pure... i really hope he stays like that.
this brings me hope back in the new generation
Tanishq, you are a gift to us all. I know you are going to change the world... maybe even the universe ;)
My mother was told by a psychologist that I would never be able to get married if she allowed me to be put into a higher grade as my school had suggested. I was kept at grade/age level all my school years. i learned nothing in my classes, was not able to communicate with people my own age, but I didn't stop learning. I am incredibly educated but have no certification for it. I am happy that i didn't allow myself to stagnate. I did marry and have children. Now I am writing books.So happy for him
She's my sister Tiara, she's 6 years old... and that's basically it! haha
Inspiring!! as an average human I can olny wish that we as a soceity can recognize his genius and let people like him one day show os better way of life and rid us of our stupid ways.
this kid keeps hope for humanity alive...
looks like abed from community
smart guy
I'm sure this kid will do great things for science in his life, his admirable attitude will get him there.
This kid is smarter than the half of million people who viewed this video. Great upload!
