Yeah, thats why she can be smart. Most people are stupid, some are very stupid. Staying away from stupid does wonders for mental clarity.
Personnel anecdot here, my brothers and I were homeschooled and didn’t engage with many that werent on the same accelerated curriculum we were on. We didn’t have to suffer from dumb downed lessons and constant repetitive busy work.
I usually finnished my weeks work of school in 2-4 days. I never understood how kids stayed busy at school all the time?
Anyway, thats all to say that, socializing can be done correctly, or to one’s own detriment.

The earth is an oblate spheroid. It bulges at the equator due to the centrifugal force.

same here. socialization made me dumber and it actively discouraged learning and achievement.
becoming anti-social was the best thing I ever did for my mental health, and academics. my grades went from Cs to As once I stopped wasting time getting drunk with people who didn’t give a shit about me.
