Thomas Edison had a difficult childhood. When he was very young, he caught his family's barn on fire and was publicly whipped by his father as a punishment. He also suffered through illness which kept him out of school for quite some time. When he went back to school, his teachers thought that he was low on intelligence, so his mother took him out of school to home school him. He had to stop studying at the age of 12 and go to work.
