boy genius not so genius

Remember the story I linked to about a month ago, about the “child genius” who might not have been all his mom cracked him up to be? Well, Mom’s admitted faking her son’s IQ tests, as part of an (ill-conceived?) plan to get him back from the authorities who took him away from her. “Ms. Chapman said that last week, she told her son what she had done. ‘He was so forgiving when I told him the truth,’ Ms. Chapman said. ‘He gave me a hug and said, “I understand.”‘”
FYI, now that I’m all broadband and stuff, I plan to be available for IMing for the first extended period in my existence. I’m crabwalkjb on AIM.
