what's funny is that people actually answered that question quite rudely,, and I got yanked !!

and yes I am VERY proud of my son.. my IQ was tested last in the 9th grade and was 143..probably went down throughout the years though !! LOL I did send an email back to them and let them know I have a 40% best answer rate, I don't think someone just putting whatever on answers would have that !!

I did not answer in insult, I added my sons' score because that is where I got the results scale from. AND I am really proud...

i would go back to yahoo and complain, it makes me kinda wonder tho if they even read those complaints when they get sent to them

sit back. I were given one too for opposing the BNP; merely with assistance from posting a itemizing of each and every of the lawbreaking incidents of their officials/supporters. some different person revealed an identical list right this moment, so i'm satisfied if my 11 factors wakes up some human beings to what they're all about. i have merely ever gained 3 violations and performance challenged 2 of them, devoid of reply both so do not carry your breath Sonia C.

No...you gave an actual (and obviously well informed) answer. Problem I can see is that I guess the asker was offended because (s)he thought you directly insulted the son when you only posted what the actual range is. The unfortunate thing is that often, yahoo really doesn't thoroughly investigate alleged violations, just yank the answers.

Granted, you did post the ranges after you posted your child's score, but, well, I don't work at Yahoo! so, I can't give you a truly definitive response to your query.

It's likely that either the poster of the question or someone else felt you might have been either showing off, or making their child look dumb by posting your child's IQ score, which was significantly higher than their child's score. I could see how this part of your response might be viewed as irrelevant to the question at hand, and consequently, not an answer to the question posed.

No but im sure Yahoo has something in their list that makes it that way. You should be very proud of your son. That is amazing. Does the IQ run in the family?
