11 Signs I’m Raising a True Nerd

My 7-year-old son is an unabashed nerd, and while geek culture is trendy these days, I’m convinced he’d be just as enthusiastic about it in any era. Here are 11 delightful indicators of his nerdy nature:

  1. He’s quick to correct anyone who mistakenly calls the creature “Frankenstein.” “Frankenstein is the doctor!” he insists. “The green guy with the bolts is Frankenstein’s monster!”
  2. Recently, he confidently told a friend’s dad, “I’m not great at sports, but I excel at archery.”
  3. His go-to outfit often includes a tie and a Newsies hat paired with one of his many comic book character t-shirts. (Spoiler: they’re all comic book themed!)
  4. Despite being on the smaller side, he proudly declares he’s the only hobbit in his class.
  5. “If they ever make an Aquaman movie, it better be done right,” he expressed with serious conviction.
  6. He named the neighborhood stray cat “Crookshanks” after Hermione’s feline friend from Harry Potter.
  7. The only time I’ve seen him genuinely upset during a show was when his favorite contestant on a reality series called The Quest—inspired by The Lord of the Rings—lost. He teared up, and when I caught his eye, he quickly protested, “I’m not crying!” Classic nerd moment.
  8. He even crafted a rap that cleverly rhymes “Pekingese” with “allergies.”
  9. After rewatching Young Frankenstein (remember, “Frankenstein” is the doctor!), he raised his hand in class just like Inspector Kemp. No one noticed, but it was still a personal victory for him.
  10. He showcased his talent for impressions at the school talent show, nailing Captain Kirk and the local weatherman with remarkable accuracy.
  11. Just yesterday, we finished sketching designs for his Riddler Halloween costume, and it’s only June!
