[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in West Texas, went to a flagship TX school for college, went to law school in TX, and had never lived anywhere else but TX until I was 33 years old. I don't know that I am cultured NYC intellectual, but I can hold my own. No matter where you are in the US you have one of the greatest resources to help you and your child in your quest: a public library. Sure I read some classics in school, but I read an absolute ton of other material as well. And that's where I picked up a lot of references, or I looked them up. And seek out what is available to you - many towns have community theater, local symphony, wind or brass ensembles. Or the university a few hours away will. The one major difference between my childhood and now is internet and streaming. I do think it's really hard to shut all that down and use boredom to stimulate curiosity.[/quote]
