Why can't Ryan's parents be more supportive? Being kinda lucky? He was just downright smart. Also, he's parents are way too unreasonable.
Welcome to Asian parenting world, where being geniuses are still not enough
Sincerely,
- kid from an Asian family.
+kelloverdose rey my parents also said I got straight A's because I got lucky. And I cried about that, I feel like I can never fulfill their dreams upon me. So I stopped studying for 3 months and they were so panic lmao.
his parents are asian
+kelloverdose rey yeah i felt same way. there is not even a little tear or show any more happiness after he won that.
+Julie Huynh don't be racist
Aw the kid who got two right made me feel so bad, "Apparently that special person is not me" aw
+PumpkinTea lol
LOL!
Yea 😂😫
mckenzie Q that made me laugh.......😅
mckenzie Q he said “apparently” which meant he thinks he’s supposed to be it but he’s not
this is the clever version of dance moms
+Robyn Marr wait a minute is that felix?
Who is Felix do u mean Pewdiepie?
Robyn Marr yeah
+Robyn Marr his name is Felix
i agree
"Maybe today he was kinda lucky" like WTF? Ryan is smart. Your just pressuring him and didn't even give him some praise or encouragement words. Instead you said that. You should've said," Im so proud to my little boy. His been working so hard and im just so proud of him." Sorry if I offended,but seriously.
Lol my parents never compliment me, that's probably how parents 'help' their kids to improve and worker harder for their expectations.
Yeah so true, a lot of pressure in him thats why he makes a mistake often,
She probably said that off camera. maybe she wanted to sound modest since other kids worked hard too and lost. Im sure the kid understands
Anika Wee no she's a tiger mom they are very strict look it up.
She wouldn’t have said that she would have corrected the spelling mistake in your sentence...
Are you serious?! The child had the highest score of the day, must you he got lucky?
Asian parents. LOL
What kind of a fucking mom says "you were lucky" to there son like wtf
+Zuni There is a random effect, the same reason you want to test a theory many times. He(the kid) may have gotten lucky. I am sure this genius was mature enough to know his parents love him, I mean its instinct.
+Kashmir Rhem As a Chinese myself. It is a way of how Chinese people humble themselves and also show respect to the other competitors' achievements.
asian parnt way of saying im proud of u
It's not "child genius", it's some sort of "smartish kids who get pressured admit by their parents to perform well in an obnoxious game show".
ENiGMA i bet the game show gives them some of the answers
Is typpicall asiant parent
ikr this kids are like moderately smart
Leggoh but lack of moral =D
130 iq as an ~10 year old is not genius level. thats definitely smart but not nearly as "genius" as they're made out to be
I feel so sorry for Ryan. You can see the disappointment in his face. I remember when I got my GCSEs results, my mum said she has to put on her glasses to double check, and then she asked me if my teacher got the papers mixed up. My dad said something similar but hey -- I'm more capable than I'm led to believe
So what happened did u get into a levels ?
his mum him feel so bad when she said maybe he was a bit lucky
I feel so bad man, I understand that when you try so hard your parents are not proud and stuff. Just ignore that and just keep on working hard.
For those with low IQ
pressure in meaningless,Ryan is amazing
@@NUI_BAWK_2_Anglow IQ isn’t totally genetic, if pressure is put on someone than they can still excel. ❤❤❤
Poor kid, 2:19 instead of complimenting the kid and telling him he did great etc, him mother said maybe today he was just lucky... Poor kid, all that hard work and effort...
Nah their Asian and most Asian parents are like that. (I'm Asian)
+chey grassi true
chey and of course that makes it okay. Smh.
chey bro not all Asians are like that (I'm Asian )
That's how they raise their kids. It was really ok because they just do it to Ryan so that he won't be cocky and to aim higher. She's not saying that it's only luck was the reason that he was there it's because he's lucky that he could've been in the last 5.
Teacher: Ryan's Mom wants one of her son's to become president
Ryan becomes president
Ryan's Mom: You were just lucky
😂😂😂
she calls it luck I call it skill
ha ha ...this is hilarious 🤣🤣
I wish I was this smart ..Sometimes I feel sad that my parents didn’t put much more pressure on me 😂
Same 😂
Me too
can we just change this competition to Child Genius and Ungrateful Parents ?
Or communism at its finest?
sn0ー a
sn0ー
Yea, parents feel a bit pushy.
This seems similar to they beauty pageants, where the parents are worse than the kids, I could easily see arguments like “my kid is smarter than your kids” a bit of an ego trip and I feel unfair putting kids under this sort of pressure.
For those with low IQ
pressure in meaningless

Does anyone else feel dumb after watching this
Me
I feel very dumb now
I feel smart being slightly slower than them in most questions
esp when im chinese too. just like ryan
me.
"One special kid deserves to be crowned but that kid isn't me" Awww feel bad 😢
Ive watched this show a couple of times and that asian mom is borderline psychotic. She never gives her son any feeling of accomplishment or success
Chika I definitely understand that
Chika yeah. I was like 2nd in every grade I've been to and they still make me feel like I should be at the top. But I know it's just to make me stay humble and aim higher.
I got c's when I was in elementary school. Now I'm in middle and I get straight A's. Why? Because my parents always make me feel good about myself. And they always to tell me that they're proud of me no matter what. My friend was a straight A student. Now she gets D's. Why? Because her parents pressure her too much. Thanks Asian parents!
@@Chikacan98 only rank 3? you're not my child!
Chika only top 3, smh disappointment
Dang kid, I'm 14 and I can't even do math that fast.
lol
ddddddddddddddaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnnnngggggggggggggggggg
Brandon most people can't do math that fast.
I'm 17, and I hardly know anything about math xD
Well if you are were actually going for the competition you would be prepared for it, so don't demolish yourself lol
This episode is pure proof that geniuses can't be extremely proficient in all subjects. Vanya, who won the whole show, did worse than Ryan in this Math and Geography round. Clearly, Vanya has her strengths and weakness. It was the structure of the show and the order of the categories that helped her win. Please note that I am in no way demeaning Vanya's win. But, if the Math & Geography category was the last category, Ryan may have had won the title of Child Genius(since the category that he was disqualified in may have disqualified another contestant in the early round, instead of Ryan.)
ThatOneGuy The same goes for Vanya losing to Tanishq and Katherine in the card memorization round. It was the structure of the rounds that resulted in Vanya's win. If the card memorization had been the final round, Katherine may have had a shot at winning.
+ThatOneGuy I think she won because she was "good enough" at her weakness, also the last round combined things like math and history and even other things. Wasn't one of the questions like multiply the number of years a certain president held office with the number of ribs you have.
“Pass, pass, pass, pass!”
-Izzy
I feel bad for izzy
Yeah, Skye. I feel bad for Izzy too.
RYAN GETS A PERFECT SCORE AND BEATS EVERYONE
Ryan's Mom: YoU wErE jUsT lUcKy!
Me: 😑
Ikr 🙄 he wasn’t lucky, he used his brain 🤦♀️
Anyone else feel so dumb right now?
No
herobrina thedaughterofherobrine yep
Tori Green
herobrina thedaughterofherobrine I do a lot I feel dumb and stupid
IKR!!!
Ryan's mother says "Maybe today you were just lucky."
"I always tell him that no one remembers number two"
Meanwhile the father always stares at him as if not a single answer he gave was good or fast enough.
Michael Weisz yeah his brother too. 1:29
0:51 I thought she said she wanted one of her boys to be pregnant I was so confused and I had to replay.
Lmao
1000 Asian parents like this
For real
Truee im in a seinor highschool level in 7th grade
lol
yep and one of them is mine xD
I bet ya wont know what’s the root cause of these - asian youtuber.
Ryan, you are a brilliant kid and I know you have spent great effort in getting to where you are today! Everyone is different, everyone has different learning styles and getting to their goals in different ways. Wise parents find ways to be in tune to their kids' needs, their styles, have patience and lift their kids' spirits along the way... I am glad you have the resilience in handling your parents' constant criticism... what they said on the shows were reflection of their own issues, their words were not reflection of you, again you are a brilliant 12-year old!!
If Ryan's parents could leave Ryan alone, send words of sincere recognition and encouragement (words from the hearts, not with intention of making themselves look good in front of the cameras) and with love, believe it will not only help Ryan but make their lives a lot easier...
I don't think this type of pressure and preparation is healthy for a child's life experience.
I believe it is if they truly have a passion for learning. Some kids just seem to be here because of their parents - I don't think that is healthy. But a lot of these kids have grown up being the top of their class and the smartest person in town. I think this a great challenge for those kids, as well as a humbling experience. A lot of these kids truly enjoy the competition. Granted, I'm nowhere near as intelligent as these children - But I love competitions. I love participating in new things and taking challenges that I may struggle in because it means I get to grow as a person and as a student. It's all based off of your love of learning.
@sarahholland I agree with your comment. I'd like to add regardless of how passionate one is, all of that preparation is grueling.
YPeezy That's true! I don't think preparing is the issue for these children, though. They can retain information so easily, and preparing is actually fun for some of them. I think it's the pressure that's the unhealthiest part of this competition. Their parents and families constantly seem to pushing and wanting more.
+Sarah Holland they are portraying intelligence in a very wrong manner. These children seem not be intellectually gifted. Even if they are, they are being misguided by the society. As a gifted, I would say that there is no relation between the collection of abstract data and intelligence. Intelligence is all about the intensity with which one engages in a task.
+YPeezy I don't think pizza and big M are healthy for you.
1:57 look at the dad
Hear Wene He looks faaarrked
Lol
These kids are freaking mind-blowingly-awesome but, this kinda reminds me of Toddlers and Tiaras. It's mostly for their parents ego's.
Presidents are well connected, look out for banks, corporations, financiers, say complete bullshit with total confidence and keep the status quo, it has very little to do with being smart but, it helps.
True but this show made me realize that I am smarter than some kids here and I’m 12
I whould have got like 4 maybe 5
THE DOGE okay? you want a cookie?
So sweet! The little kid was like “well apparently the kid child was not meant for me!” ☺️☺️☺️☺️
I feel bad for these kids. Knowledge is a fantastic thing but when they get older they will find that high intelligence and depression walk hand in hand.
If it makes you feel any better, I know Ryan personally and he's doing well. I do worry about the others, as well.
Ryan: YAY I GOT A WIN TOKEN!!!
Mom: You just got lucky.
Ryan:gets 10/10
Ryan’s mum:ugh you could’ve done better. I think it was just luck
Mom: “I don’t push him 😅”
Home: “RYAN MEMORIZE THE FIRST 1,000 DIGITA OF PIE! DON’T FORGET TO DO 1 HOUR OF PIANO, 1 HOUR OF VIOLIN, AND MEMORIZE THE ENTIRE ENGLISH DICTIONARY!”
Ryan's mom thinks that to be president you have to be smart and knowledgeable lol
Fr, just look at Kamala
I have a friend a year younger than me who finished Algebra 1 in 6th grade (I’m taking it now as an 8th grader) and won a national robotics competition. She should really go on this show.
This show makes me feel guilty. :(
@@onboardbench2254 he means this show makes him look dumb and lazy
“She would like one of her kids to be president.” Right because being president is about being good at algebra and geography
I did Algebra 1 in 6th grade, and I'm still considered one of the less intelligent kids in my class. When I was in 8th grade, there were kids already doing Pre-calc.
+Long Nguyen When this show was looking for contestants, I was not notified of it and therefore didn't apply. Now I am currently too old to be on this show, thank you very much. Additionally, I have to ask, why would you suggest that I move to LA?
+Ee Guo because Ryan and his family movies to LA so he could focus more
+Sal Luna LA is where they film this that's why
Jmna yes and his parent brought Ryan to LA to focus more
Ee Guo how is that even possible? here in new jersey I did the highest math course for 9th grade and that was Algebra 2
Wait... I have a question...
If the kids are smart, what about the judges?
You do realize that they have the answers on paper right?
I thought my Asian parents were unreasonable when I got below 95s on tests but Ryan’s parents are on a completely different level
I finished calculus III when I was 14... many people also can do it, as long as you try.
Here we go with Ryan's Parents again! "He just got lucky this time". He clearly is a genius if he got 11 questions right
People don't remember who was number one at school, but they will remember those that have an impact in the world.
i feel so dumb and stupid right now.
While here I am, a sophomore student using a calculator to solve 15+10.
i bet i can beat these kids in counting numbers and im only 30
Only?
+Lily Hayward LOL
bleach LMFAO
Ok..
Show: What is 3445- 2678
Me: Something Ryan can figure out
The kid is freaking amazing and the mom just goes "maybe today you were just lucky"
I felt so bad for the little black boy
I don’t like how Ryan’s mom was like “maybe he was just kind of lucky?” Like bruh encourage your kid please!
Coolbeans - I know right? She such a unsupportive parent
There is a huge difference between natural talent and parental pressure (AKA you are only brilliant at something because your parents pressured you into being so), and I think some kids are only brilliant because of the latter.
For those with low IQ
pressure in meaningless
Sorry for bragging about it here. I scored 160-170 on multiple IQ tests, even my parents noticed my advanced memory and tempo in problem solving after my teacher told them about it. I wouldn't be happy going to this show, since I hate being around too many people especially when I don't know them. Again, I am sorry for bragging about it. I just feel safer letting it out here, although this isn't the safest place.
"just kinda lucky"
jeez that kid had a life... why do you have to be mean
Ryan's parents should be happy for him! "Oh, maybe he was just lucky today"
2:18
Mom: today you were just “Kinda” lucky
Me: Whaaa?!!! Your boy just won!!!!!!!?!
Him: I finished algebra 1 in 6th grade most people finish it in 9th
Me: I finished it in 8th 😎😎😎😎
He said ‘normal’ people WHO DOES HE THINK WE ARE!!!
When ryan wins, his mom is not satisfied, when he didn't win a round, she will get angry. What the heck do you want from ryan?!
I wish I would get so "lucky" on my biochem exam tomorrow :/
I can already see what these kid’s future will be. All this pressure from their childhood will definitely make them rebel. If you raise your kids under pressure, no sort of freedom, and only saying they did good cuz they got lucky is just gonna make them resent you. These kids are hella smart and they should be praised for that, not being told that it was luck and not their hard work. I hope they continue to do good cuz like they def got the criteria to go through the wrong crowd.
These poor children being pressured by their parents to only be the best, nothing less.
"And Ryan, with a PERFECT score!"
Ryan's mom," You can always do BETTER!"
Ryan: I GOT A PERFECT SCORE
Most of this comment section is about how the parents weren’t being supportive... Welcome to the Asian lifeu. We’re A-sian not B-sian yet we could still do better than having an A+. We need an average of 4.00 in order to be “good enough” or else we’re like a disgrace to our parents. Like I’m not even joking I got grounded for 4 months bc of ONE B.... it wasn’t even a low B and a couple days after I brought it up. Also, we get lectured at home 24/7 along with the “sorry is not an excuse for getting a low A” phrase everyday.
Sincerely, Asian kid.
feelsbadman
I feel really bad for you 😭😭
Yeah lol, it's kinda the same for me except I don't get grounded for getting a B. I'm an A student and so when I get B's, you can just feel the disappointment radiating from my mum. 😂 Once I got a C and my mum told her friend, who sent me learning material for that subject for a whole term. She even got me a tutor for that subject. 😂 And when I come 2nd for something academic, the first thing my mum says is "Who came first?" or "Why didn't you come first?".
For me it's not really that bad because I know it's just because she knows I can do better and she wants me to study really hard so I can have a good future. But wow, you seem to have it waaay harder than me.
One of our math substitute teacher said “you gotta do what you gotta do to get the answer. wether if it’s counting your finger”
1:50 “apparently that kid isn’t me”❤️
No joke, in kindergarten I had a classmate named Ryan, and he looks EXACTLY LIKE THIS RYAN
Is it just me or does ryans dad look like Jackie Chan
Imagine having 10 tons of pressure put on you and your mom is just like “maybe he was just lucky”
I finished Algebra 1 and 2 in 7th, I'm smart ;)
‘ Maybe today you were just kind of lucky’
Ugh! Seriously woman! He was so good! So clever! She got the highest score of that round!
he got lazy at the end of the season lol
I mean,I would too
Guys guys, listen here. Every child is born a genius. It is only the way we nurture their ability, and the way by which one thinks, which determines whether someone is a regarded as a ,’genius’. No game show, or test can prove if someone is a genius.
Kinda lucky SHUT UP! ur son is a genius 👍🏼
I was revising for my exam and somehow ended up here. Any confidence I had just got knocked down by a bunch of 12 year olds...
"Normal people" lol feel as if some of these kids believe they are more superior for being academically smart
This may be rude, but how would you describe or what a "normal person" is verses someone who excels in academics or even arts. Basically how would you have reworded his way of describing his life?
sandya hsieh the phrase normal people has a bad stigma around it lmao
Ryan: **wins** My parents will accept me fully :D
Ryan's Parents: You were just lucky.
Ryan: D:
I'm taking algebra II in 7th grade... Next semester I'll move up to trigonometry.
+Maxine Gilligan How do you know? How can you just judge a person off of who they subbed to on TH-cam? How low of you... Oh what has TH-cam come to...
Maxine Gilligan Maybe you shouldn't have judged in the first place! You don't know what is going on in others' life. This is all something that you 'think'. You NEVER know. Maybe you're right, maybe you're wrong. She could be watching anything on another algebra website, BESIDES, TH-cam. You need to consider other options. Perhaps she might be getting a tutor. Maybe it is just rare, maybe it is. It's not your life.
Maxine Gilligan Well don't say 'obviously not' then. If you're just assuming, you could possibly say something like 'most likely' or 'probably'.
Maxine Gilligan Why don't you take common knowledge? You have NO CLUE what is going on in their life. They could be going to another website with possibly more info than TH-cam. I've done that more than once. Maybe this person is a genius, and overall, doesn't need that. Man, you just never know. Not everyone, everything, is the same.
Maxine Gilligan Oh well. I don't care anymore. You have no clue, all you made was a hypothesis.
You gotta feel for the kid who passed on 22.8/3. Its not hard to see that the parents pressurise their kids just for their own satisfaction.
I'll be waiting in the voting polls Ryan😂
That kid who was like “this kid wasnt me” in the beginning broke my fing heart
basically child abuse, let the kids be kids!
Reminds me of Kiril Kulish's mother (he was the fantastic ballet dancer who played one of the Billy Elliots) when an interviewer asked her if Kiril was interested in the ballet. "We didn't ask him," she answered. "We like the ballet so he took ballet. If he liked it, so much the better. If not he at least got some culture. You don't ask a child if he wants to learn math or brush his teeth. He's a child. You tell him"
*pass*
Anyone reading this, if you haven't repented yet, please REPENT, FOR THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS AT HAND.
I'm like, she's on child genius and can't figure out 22.8/3???
I learned that in like 6th or 7th grade.... on 5th grade I already knew how to divide any natural number by another, on 7th I learned percentage...
He is not just smart, he LITERALLY trains 24/7 because of the pressure of their parents. Did you see how the dad in the beginning said people always remember number 1 and never 2?
isn't the plural of genius genii? That's right, I'm smarter than all these people. Or I'm just dumb
2:14- "Other kids are very strong,maybe today you were just lucky"
Imagine working so hard thinking "I'm going to make my parents proud and win in this game show" and then be told that they were just lucky.
Also,his mom doesn't even know the correct words to use. She should have used smart instead of strong.
Kinda feel bad for the kid
1+1=2 thats what i know XD
*just joking i know more*
no you dont know more
It’s window
Weird flex but okay
If I was a child genius my parents would be proud of me
This is very wrong, who in their right mind would be like "Hey, these kids like learning, let's demolish their self-esteem and make them feel dumb so that I can feel smarter than them" This whole "child genius" thing is ridiculously stupid and before anyone replies saying "you're just jealous that you're not smarter than them" lemme tell you something, I am well smarter than the average human, but I can see psychologically what will happen. These kids will already have it hard enough where they won't ever be able to have actual conversations with others the way you can. I've had this issue many a time before. Just leave them alone.
I agree
Agree. Many of my classmates consider me the second, if not the smartest student in class, yet I can have normal conversations and interact with people normally. Yes, sometimes I am very quiet and serious, but that’s because i don’t feel the need to talk.
Her mother made it clear that she wants one of her kids to be the president. Oh boy. That's a life long tiger mother crouching in the corner.
Yay Asian win at math again.
Being Asian has nothing to do with being good at math...
+Mr. Discount yes, it does. While being Asian doesnt automatically mean you're good at math, it is true that GENERALLY, Asians tend to get better grades in math (and other subjects) than other races. I read a study about this.
Yuki Yukimura maybe statistically yes but it doesn’t affect it at all tbh
LMAO RIGHT WHEN I READ THIS I LOOKED AT YOUR PROFILE PIC
No it has nothing to do with it
I’d get mad if my mom watched me do something great, and then just say: “I think you were just lucky.”

+Mike Fuller i can tell
This isn't actually called genius , a genius is the one who is creative and thinks alternatively , not a calculator...
They wanted him to be president?
+Daniel Bolton I'm pretty sure u don't have to be a math genius to be president but I think they mean they want their child to be successful
You have to be good at politics, and yes, be good at math to an extent, but I think it’s mostly the basics.
...this called me dumb on so many levels...
just want say
asian are most smart
