It’s a busy time in their life: Your son is most likely starting to show more complex thinking patterns, although sometimes getting those thoughts out of them may be difficult. You may notice: Again, everyone is different, but if by age 14 your son isn’t showing some of these signs of puberty, you may want to make an appointment with a doctor for a physical exam . But at age 14, it’s a safe bet that your son’s rapidly emerging sense of self is going to astonish you and, at the same time, introduce new challenges into your relationship. Their relationships with you, with their peers, and even with their own body, are changing, and they are engaged in a struggle to keep up and emerge as a strong young adult. If you have a 14-year-old boy around the house, you already know that they have changed almost overnight in some ways that seem huge. Other changes might be more subtle. All boys are different, and all reach certain points in their development at different ages. Emotional Changes At this stage in your son’s life, they are right in the midst of puberty, which means that their hormone levels are up and down. They’ll face emotional changes and feelings that are new and strange.

The term genius refers to someone with extraordinary intellectual or creative power. Psychologists in the early 1900s were the first to measure and define genius in terms of a person's intelligence quotient (IQ). The first genius IQ score was around 140. That’s about one in every 250 people. But one leading researcher in the 1940s suggested that a genius should have an IQ over 180. That’s about one in every 2 million people. There is no one definition of genius. But many doctors study highly intelligent, or gifted, children to understand genius better. They define genius as a wealth of originality, creativity, and the ability to imagine or think in new ways and areas. Could your child have the behaviors and skills of above-average intelligence or genius? Here are some of the traits of extremely high intelligence to watch for.
