[quote=Anonymous]I remember interviewing for a job quite a few years ago. Two-parent household, both very successful in their respective careers. I still remember my shock when I was told they didn't want to raise smart kids. That was the final red flag for me in that interview (there was a long list). I get not wanting to pressure kids to learn more than they need to, are interested in, or developmentally ready for; but what parent actually says "We don't want to raise smart kids." With that job I would have always worried that I was teaching the kids too much...even if all the "teaching" was in the context of extending what they were already engaged in and taking advantage of teachable moments.
