What were you doing when you were two years old? I'd hazard a guess that you weren't doing much that was out of the ordinary. You had tantrums and learning where to go potty to be preoccupied with, after all.

This isn't the case for every kid, though. There are prodigies in this world who have a genuinely shocking amount of precocious talent, and one such example of this is the toddler son of composer David Foster and singer Katharine McPhee.

Earlier this month, McPhee boasted that their nepo baby was a "genius" and shared with the world a video of him thrashing it out on a child-size drum kit. The people of Twitter may be notoriously hard to impress, but the kid's skills were almost universally praised when they were shared on the former bird app. If you didn't feel inadequate in yourself before reading this, you certainly will now.
