Their beliefs are encouraged. The TV's said "how computer savvy" they kids are; even my younger brother ( > 60 ) has touted that to me. I explain that it's the same fantastic technical literacy as turning on a television (but to no avail). Alcohol in his blood-surrogate ?
They think they're so wise in technology - in fact, the know they are so wise - because they tell each other so !

My son sleeps late these days (and no sleep during the day). So, keep telling him that he should sleep more/in time, it is good for health, develops brain, etc.
Yesterday, we were watching a series where teacher scolds a student for sleeping in the class. My son innocently asks something like: this
Innocence (he is just over 4 years)

I was known (and likely feared) for asking 'different' questions because I always interpreted things with a, er, slightly obtuse view

I like kid to be inquisitive ... why to block and direct his thoughts or suppress them. The more he thinks, more he will ask... believe that's best.

Don't ask me, ask my former Master Sergeant: "Don`t think, just do as I say! And now throw out the trash!"
Guess what flew out the window a second later. He almost had a stroke. By now he probably has drunk himself to death and is burried in a place I found in Skyrim, called Dimhollow Crypt.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

That tells us more that maybe there are other things always at play then some old thought processes.

Very few thought processes were at play when I was at school, hence the sleeping 
To be fair, my grades weren't high (but I still managed to get a Master's degree and no one asks about grades anyway), but when I switched to programming there was little sleeping and lots of studying

Your son is probably more intelligent than his teachers.
Personally, I could never sleep in school. The teachers spoke too loudly.

Didn't thought that really mattered. If someone wants, find the last bench and probably can sleep off

International Cat Day - Wikipedia[^]
So, if you have an International Cat, celebrate it!
Our's doesn't like to go international: it would take him far, far too long to scent mark every single damn thing he passed on the way ...

Species, like so many things, are only social constructs now. In some places they probably are already passing laws to make it a crime to wrongly assume someone's species.

"Many a true word ..." and all that: Google for "Fursecution" and compare that to the anti-gay movements of the late 90's.

Only if you take your completely irrelevant random lines on some map. You have no idea how many cat nations there are in your neighborhood alone. Invasions and border incidents happen every day. The Kingdom of Pussy against the Fred Alliance, Felix the Conqueror has just defeated Bill the Sleepy and now has access to new hunting grounds and the Fortress of Evil where they have locked up Lady Gina. Meanwhile, feral cats have set up a communist utopia in a nearby park and prepare to liberate all others from all oppressors...
