considers waste to be criminal.
Her success is not surprising if you consider her excellent training.
failed to consider the feelings of others.

Do you see what I mean?

No, his mother is considering taking the talent as her own since he is only six years old.

That's how it looked to me.

his grammer is correct. and whats the point of making a big deal about it? this isnt english class. might be ok to just joke about, but you dont need to give english lessons.

You're just proving my point, what he meant was something like "You have a talent that your mother would praise you for, for about 5 seconds" or something along those lines which is pretty different to what you interpreted it to mean.

It doesn't matter anyway, I just figure someone who has pride in their grammar would want to know the correct way to do things.

Definitions of "Consider"
study: give careful consideration to, think about carefully; weigh  
regard: look at attentively  
view: look at carefully; study mentally  
regard or treat with consideration, respect, and esteem

I stated that she was considering his talent, in a different, or "strange," format.  So no, I do not see what you mean.

Along with that; although not being my most ridiculous arguement, this one is rather stupid.
