I will confirm this assessment, but she is still wonderful. And I mean that literally. The girl is full of wonder.

Thanks, man, that's very kind of you to say!
We really lucked out in a lot of ways. She's the kind of kid that just makes people smile. Which, thank God for that.

There’s nature and nurture in that. She’s a wonderful girl, and her parents have helped nurture that…

I wonder how much of each, though. A good portion of the time I lament the fact that she's absolutely going to grow up to be the kid with "those WEIRD parents." Inadvertent though it may be, we're not going to make it easy on her in high school, that's for sure.
