I learned about Pascal's ~~pyramid~~ triangle and ~~trinomial~~ binomial expansion as part of my 7th grade math curriculum. And it's not like I needed to be 12 to learn how to do this; that's just typically the youngest age that it's taught in schools (in the US, at least). It's addition.
And regarding the penmanship, which was OOP's actual point of contention: It really seems more characteristic of a child's writing than an adult's. It's slow and methodical in a way that makes me think of someone who's still developing fine motor skills.
It’s typically called Pascal’s triangle, but that isn’t important. The important note is that it’s *binomial* expansion. Not trinomial. They are binomial coefficients.
I did the same thing in my 5th grade math class. This used to be part of elementary school curriculum before standardized testing ruined teacher's lesson plans
My handwriting looked like that when I was 8 lmao how is that *not* a child's handwriting? OOP really must think all kids have the handwriting of a toddler who can barely hold a pencil
I know some of you are seeing this post for the first time here. This post is leaving out the image of the child.
The child can't be older than 3. There is absolutely no way the child pictured has the motor skills write that well.
youre extremely naive if you belive this is impossible
ik of a child who can perfectly recreate multiple dif fonts and have an immaculate handwriting, videos of which are online of him writing said fonts
edit: looked into it more and bro...literally look into hyperlexia please
sorry for that oversight, hard to edit the post after posting, but i do still think it is believable and doesnt miss the point much; example being as there exist some very advanced KITA curriculums for children and not every child eats grass like mine do
That shit is basic addition. OP is a deflated potato:
OOP must’ve struggled in algebra if doing this makes you gifted
Was gonna say, that's not gifted, that's a kid being taught a pattern and given a calculator.
And OOP has shitty handwriting if they can't believe that chicken scratch is a child's handwriting.
If you call that chicken scratch you haven't seen mine yet
The 4s specifically let me know this is someone under 12yo.
😱😱😱 the child did ADDITION!!!
Literally addition, and generic children’s handwriting. Do posters on r/thathappened have severe lead poisoning?
They think all children have the mental age of a toddler.
This post is missing the sevond picture - the child is a 5 yo. So... maybe?
Maybe what?
Could be read as "Five-year-olds are toddlers, so this one being five years old is a toddler". Though probably not.

Yeah its literally just addition in a pattern
Tf that was and still is my handwriting pretty much😭
no shame in keeping the og childs handwriting, i only switched to the fancy cursive to mess with people
A whole bunch of kid related posts on that sub are obviously people who have never spent much time as adults around young children.
some children are actually nerds like that
That’s not gifted that’s literally just addition
“baby put circle in the circle hole? uh.. yeah.. sure dude.”

Bro walks into the gifted kid classroom, sees what they’re working on, and immediately starts yelling at the teacher for being a cia psyop
I mean it looks like my handwriting, but I think that’s more of a reflection on me than anything else
i also got a childlike handwriting ರ╭╮ರ especially when writtting cursive

The child pictured in the post appears to be a toddler.

That was my question. The age of child makes all the difference. To not include it in the post here is silly.
the child is a 5 yo so he either started a kita or will go to school in a year
No 5 year old did this. Sorry.
im sorry the system failed you
