It just means being a child prodigy is a curse. It’s monkey paw shit. The kid is screwed either way. No matter what, he’s going to grow up with a massive ego about how he’s a god compared to the rest of us plebs only to crash out hard when he gets tripped up by something that he’s not a prodigy in, which is literally everything outside of the one thing he’s super competent in. Even a well-adjusted adult has to constantly fight against stans inflating their ego. A kid doesn’t stand a fucking chance.
