[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am an average person and would like my child to have a chance at being a high achiever in life. How can I help or guide him? [/quote] Talk to them all the time, starting the day they are born. Narrate your life. Explain concepts, vocabulary, causal relationships. Your kids will literally be years ahead of their peers.[/quote] This has nothing to do with a kid becoming high achieving [/quote] Shows how much you know :-P "There was a direct correlation between the children who’d heard a lot of parent talk and how prepared they were to learn once they arrived at school. Hart and Risley wrote, “With few exceptions, the more parents talked to their children, the faster the children’s vocabularies [grew] and the higher the children’s IQ test scores at age 3 and later.”" https://www.kqed.org/mindshift/42177/what-parents-can-gain-from-learning-the-science-of-talking-to-kids[/quote]
