ah first off i wasnt calling twelve year olds stupid, however what you're saying implies that you believe a twelve year old would have equal experience and capacity as a seasoned writer who has been creating some of the greatest television shows of the era, the stuff a twelve year old can come up with has less depth and is less well constructed (when Greg is used as the comparison at least).

2nd: im australian, so i have NO idea what you mean by this "middle school" thing. We have preschool, primary school, highschool, [college], career ,and in terms of writing ability a primary or highschooler has NOTHING on someone who does that for their living. 12 yr olds may be smarter then they used to be, but they're still young and are definately not on the level you seem to see them at.

3rd: I disagree on the basis that i've never seen a seven year old come up with a theory such as this. As i said, from what ive seen twelve is a more appropriate age to come up with an idea such as this because for that age this isnt bad. Unless you are 7 and made a theory such as this yourself (or heard it from someone seven), No.

4th: I'm not stereotyping. Generalising, maybe. But there werent any offensive agist stereotypes which you assume there to be.
