I'll warn you in enough time that you can retire!! He is one that can drive you crazy with 20 million questions and "what if" scenarios. I'm usually good with the first 5 minutes or so and then I just have to tell him to stop. I don't like to stifle intellectual curiosity, but every answered question spawns more. I send him to Google a lot.

He is one of those kids that take over class discussions. His 5th grade teacher last year said she literally couldn't teach a subject in the realm of science and social studies / history that he didn't know enough about to monopolize the discussion.

I am proud of him, though.
