“It’s one of my dreams. So yeah, I am really excited to go there!” Caleb, the young genius told NewsNation Now. “They have an amazing aerospace engineering program.”

When Claire and Kobe Anderson welcomed their firstborn, Caleb, they were so happy that he was a jolly baby.

In fact, he would try to mimic people talking at just three weeks old.

That was his first sign of genius.
Happy with Caleb’s interest in reading and talking, Claire tried an alternative approach.

“I would teach children to read, as they were learning to talk,” recalled Claire.

Caleb seemed to like his mother’s approach and he was more interested in interacting than in baby toys.

The baby would try to sound out the words being read to him.

By one, Caleb was into math.
When Caleb turned one, he already mastered sight words and began being interested in math.

That’s when his parents knew their son was different.

At just two years old, instead of putting toys in his mouth and babbling, Caleb was already onto something many still can’t grasp.

He was mastering fractions.
There was also a viral video of little Caleb reading the United States Constitution at just two years old.

Claire recalled people laughing because they didn’t have television or baskets of toys.

Some even found it weird that she and her husband would give out books as presents for holiday.

Mensa is a well-known society for people who have exceptionally high IQs.

He was later enrolled when he turned five and then he passed first grade.

Young Caleb is also fluent in Spanish, French, and Mandarin.

If you think he’s already amazing, well, at nine, he was already in 7th grade.

Caleb talked to his mother and told her it was boring, so his parents decided he could skip high school and go directly to college.

His dad chaperoned the young genius because of his age and taught him about the adjustments to being a college student.

Caleb finished his first two years of college at Chattahoochee Technical College. When he was 12, he applied to Georgia Tech as a sophomore.

Of course, he got in.

And now he’s graduating.

And eventually his Ph.D. from MIT- outstanding achievements for a young man.

Being an aerospace engineer is not an easy course to take, but it was this young man’s dream.

So when he was asked about his experience in college, he said:

“Do I feel like I’m (breaking barriers)? No, not necessarily,” Caleb said in his interview with TODAY. “I honestly just feel like I am doing what I want to do. But do I know that I am doing it? Yes. I know that people are inspired by me. People look up to me.”

In an interview with 11Alive, Caleb’s mother said that there are many kids like Caleb and they just need the right opportunities and guidance.

Indeed, Claire was right.
With the right guidance, children like Caleb would flourish.

Aside from Caleb, Claire and Kobe Anderson also have two younger kids named Aaron and Hannah.

They are also enrolled in gifted programs at their school.

MY MIL “ACCIDENTALLY” DROPPED OUR GENDER REVEAL CAKE – BUT HER SMILE TOLD A DIFFERENT STORY. When I say my MIL ruins milestones, I’m not exaggerating. She wore white to our wedding (“It’s cream”), posted our pregnancy before we could, and blurted our baby name to her bridge group—then “forgot” it was a secret. So for our gender reveal, I kept things small. Honestly, I didn’t even want to invite her. But my husband said, “She means well. She won’t ruin a simple cake-cutting.” Oh, how wrong we were. We hosted it in our backyard—close friends, family, pink-and-blue treats, and a gorgeous cake with the big reveal inside. Jenny, my SIL, picked it up right before the event. Everything was perfect. Then MIL arrived—late, wearing hot pink (subtle), fake air kisses, and circling the cake like a vulture. “It’s so tall,” she said. “Are you sure it’s stable?” Then—right as we were about to cut the cake, cameras ready—she lunged forward. “Oh no, I’ll just move it a little closer—” The cake toppled. Smashed. Frosting and layers everywhere. Gasps. Silence. And MIL? Standing there, hands over her mouth, smiling. Not a big grin—just enough to say, “Oops… guess it’s a girl! Granny knew first!” I turned away, fighting tears. One moment. Just one memory she couldn’t ruin. AND THAT’S WHEN IT HAPPENED. My SIL, Jenny, burst out laughing. “Just like I expected.” She went to her car… and came back with a BOX. ⬇️

MY EX-HUSBAND’S WIFE THREW MY DAUGHTER’S SEWING MACHINE IN THE POOL – I DIDN’T THINK TWICE ABOUT STANDING UP FOR MY DAUGHTER. I (46) am a mother to my 16-year-old daughter, Rachel. She usually lives with me but occasionally stays with her dad and stepmother, whom she despises for being controlling and cruel. Rachel’s stepmother enforces strict rules and gives her no allowance. When her dad refused to help financially, Rachel got a job to save for her dream sewing machine. Rachel worked hard, and I doubled her savings to help her buy the machine. She was thrilled and spent her free time sewing, hoping to turn it into a career. But her stepmother was furious, claiming it was a distraction from chores. After an argument with her for not washing the plates, she THREW Rachel’s sewing machine INTO THE POOL as punishment. Rachel called me, devastated. I immediately went to confront her stepmother, who said she was just teaching Rachel responsibility. Furious, I took Rachel home and decided to teach my ex’s wife a lesson. The next day, her screams made it clear she realized how badly she’d been tricked. What she discovered the next morning left her screaming—keep reading.
