[quote=Anonymous]I could have been the MB who said I don't want to raise my kids to be smart kids. I want to raise my kids to be happy. I hope genetics gave them a reasonable amount of intelligence so that they can go where their interest and hard work will take them. I do not want to raise a chd to present the image of being smarter than they are, which is what I think sometimes happens when caregivers become over eager to teach the child things that make them (and the caregiver) look smart. I think the people around the child start to expect more from them, and that by second or third grade, when things start to even out, the chd loses a bit of their identity. [/quote]
