As far as I can tell, EVERYONE's Child is a complete genius...and yet for some reason the Special Schools have never been so full...strange indeed.
Stranger still, many proud parents I discuss this with, cunningly forget all those occasions when their so-called 'smart children' end up putting poo in their mouths, talking using really silly words and voices, think that 'cows' are the funniest things of all time and peeing themselves in public..
These are not the actions of a genius, (except Steven Hawkings obviously) so when are you all going to stop setting your kids up for a fall before they can even walk?

You must have been thinking quite hard these past four days, writing all these genial thoughts down. Did you happen to visit your parents, seen as you can't visit them over Christmas this year? I am sure they patted you on the back while you were scribbling away. It must have been gratifying for them to learn their son has finally mastered the skill of writing. Even though with all the pats and jovial laughter your scribbles may have appeared hieroglyphic.. But reading what I wrote you sofar under this post, makes me fear you might take offense in this. Dear Ichi, you're the smartest kid on this block, so I wouldn't dream of being patronising to you.
That said, you do realise of course Lottie's kid (I wash my hands of the entire business, he's not my son I am sure, though you may want a look?) Snogworthy is your equal.. I'm proud of her, and possibly yourself, for siring such a marvel. Thanks for that.

I agree there is too much focus on "academics" in pre-school and many parents do set their kids up to fail.
In my experience, parents with children that are actually academically, creatively, etc gifted (proven with tests or by other actions) do not share this need to tell the world their child is a genius. They feel embarrassed or worried others may look down on them for being proud of their child.

Every parent is going to say their kid is a genius! It is the nature of the beast. Now just because your kids is smart also means they are kids and will act like kids. There are many genius adults who act like children too. So you cant just say someones kid isn't smart because he makes noises or says silly words. I do think my children are above average in intelligence. My 2 year old can say full sentences and can count to 13 and knows her ABCs. I know many 2 year olds who are a big DUH!. I have twin 6 year old boys and they are both smart in their own way. Yes they have things they aren't good at but make up for it in other ways. I don't go around putting them up on pedestals. I wouldn't want them to fall far. But as "smart" goes my kids aren't dumb and yes they are still kids who act like kids. ;)

My daughter is just like any three-year-old....I'm surprised actually, at how much she does know sometimes.....she sure outsmarts me!
The girl built a set of 'stairs' one night, out of a basket, my computer chair, and a few other things, so she could get into one of the kitchen cupboards and get some crackers.
That's not to say that she doesn't do anything wrong...oh she can be impatient as a tornado and stubborn as anything! But it's easy to forget about the bad things when the good things happen :)

What a few humans look to be lacking this is the WAIST TO HIP RATIO....reviews have additionally determined that ladies with a exact waist to hip ratio (round .7) are viewed extra wonderful, as good. A "higher change among a lady's waist and hips" does now not (always) imply "fats," it implies an hourglass determine. Not "sticks," now not "apples"...however possibly "pears." I consider the truth that totally separate reviews that exhibit that those ladies are viewed extra wonderful leads credence to this research. As others have mentioned, a curvy lady (NOT "fats") is a fertile lady. When a lady is just too skinny, her fertility decreases, and she or he may also quit having a interval. Think approximately it in phrases of evolution...if a lady is just too skinny (for our ancestors, this supposed there used to be a deficit of meals) a lady's frame is probably not ready to aid a being pregnant, or the youngster is not going to increase accurately. Fertility additionally decreases the extra overweight a lady is. Neither of the extremes is fascinating (for procreation), however a exact quantity of fats on a lady is critical (once more, for procreation).

As my children (6 & 3)have gotten older, I see the areas where they are average and the areas where they are above (and, yes, even below) average. When you are observing small children learning, it can be an amazing thing. You find yourself scratching your head and trying to figure out how they learn to do the things they do. It seems like acts of pure genius.
Plus, aren't all kids just a chip off the old block?

Both my kids r smart in a different way. My daughter can learn anything the first time and always gets high grades BUT she still walks into walls and has the common sense of a grape. My son however, has to study real hard to learn BUT is so logical that he makes me nuts. Very street savvy. Yep, not the best and the brightest but they r mine. :) Im happy with that.

I really think our kids are already equipped with what they will learn . Then I believe it is up to us parents how we raise and what we teach them before they start school . So my child will be as smart as I can teach him and as much as he is able to learn.And this all takes a whole lot of time for a parent to do!

Well I tell you what, my oldest boy, Tahoe, is the pixie dust spreader on the tilt a whirl at the county fair. He done pretty good, he started as the barker for the bearded lady. My daughter, Corvette, she does nails for the folks in the trailer park.
