Neha Ramu Sorbiton is a 13 year old girl with a 162 IQ. I saw the story on her and frankly what stuck out to me was not her way beyond average intelligence. Neha refered to herself as someone that's studious and not necessarily clever. It's obvious this girl is very grounded and has a great upbringing. Many people have mentioned her name in the same breath as Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking in the articles about her.
I was floored to hear that Neha doesn't feel it's fair or right for her to be put in the same category as Einstein and Hawking given the fact that she has not really accomplished anything. I think it's wonderful to see that children can have immense talent and still be allowed the opportunity to be normal. It seems like her mother is more of a support system than anything else.
Often times parents live through their children and push them to do what they never could in their youth. That kind of behavior creates arrogance, rebellion and a sense of inhibition that can kill kids. This girl is an example, at least on paper, of the total opposite and her attitude reveals someone whose life will be both productive and balanced.
Good luck to her!
