How was Gauss so productive with 6 children?

I'd hazard by not dealing with them until they'd been schooled enough to operate as computers and GI (general intelligence) assistants.

There's a spread of farmers, railroad and telegraph directors, high level practical infomation management skills in the children.

I only have 5 kids, and I am also not nearly as productive as Gauss but to a certain degree, it feels to me like responsibility kind of tries to force me to be more effective.
