This is what happens when a kid leaves traditional education

When 13 year-old Logan LaPlante grows up, he wants to be happy and healthy. He discusses how hacking his education is helping him achieve this goal.

"...a lot of people think of hackers as geeky computer nerds who live in their parents basement and spread computer viruses but I'll see it that way.

I'm going up in a world that needs more people with the hacker mindset..."
