Never learning to socialize with other kids their own age

Even when going through a normal education system, this would not happen. The difference in both ability and interests is so large that there's little shared basis for socialization. This way there's at least some socialization.

not getting taken seriously by adults until they're much older.

Why do you think that's the case?
