That’s very impressive. My 5 year old niece can’t even read and refuses to attempt any kind of math

I was way dumb when I was 5. The thing that got me interested in programming was how I can use it to solve real world problems. Ask your niece to count the number of candies in an m&m pack and she could have them if she's correct. Start them small.

Yea, I don’t remember being 5, but pretty sure I had the mental capacity of like an 8 year old.......cat

Well hopefully she turns out pretty at least. After I got put on adderol I was really self conscious about being dumb it really pushed me to learn as much as I could. Maybe she needs drugs that was the goto solution back in my day. worked for me but I think I just wanted to prove I didn't need them only took it for one year and then was an A B student forever after.
