[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]...since intelligence is about 50% inherited.... But the BVR kids may only have one parent with decent IQ - I see those who are in NCS. Then how do you expect the kids' IQ to be? Remember what Obama said: if you marry someone who is smarter than you, you have kids who are likely smarter than you. Vice versa. [/quote] Oh, my. Genetics is much more complicated than that, and intelligence is probably one of the most complex of heritable traits. It might be possible that your kids are smarter, or not. Nurture and other intangible qualities — curiosity, perseverance, creativity, and more —will all play a role in how intelligent a child is. Further, there are many different kinds of intelligence, other than that measured by the Stanford-Binet or other IQ tests, as Howard Gardner’s work suggests. [/quote]
