<I can tell that his opinion of my intelligence is not as high as it was when he was three.>

Excellent. That means his confidence in his own abilities is growing independent of you. Which is fortunate, because it is possible that you might die before he does [nature seems to arrange things that way] in which case it would be well for him to not feel the need for your anachronistic mind full of memories, half of which are wrong and the other half irrelevant.

I remember my parents becoming senile when I turned about 16 and they gradually recovered and by the time I was in my early 20s, they seemed almost normal again [though still somewhat crusty].

PS: I made up the physics stuff. It's just the impression I get as to how things work, from my superficial understanding of what people who do understand it are doing.
