They are quit the team. Their Son has Asberger's Syndrom. A symptom or trait of that condition is to pick up and focus on only a few things. One thing their Son is obsessed with is computers. A good thing mostly. So this Nine year old has the regular rules about Internet. But, he finds ways to hack passwords of neighbors wireless routers, etc etc. He looks for back doors in software to get around passwords etc.
They have to do things like hide his wireless card, disable his laptop wireless (which he figures out how to turn back on). At age 5 he was bypassing security on his Mom's PC.
With his Asbergers it's kind of worrysome that he doesn't always understand ethical type situations. We may have a future hacker on our hands. Or CIA cracker or something.
