Megmeg, I agree faster is not always smarter, subject depth is also important; by faster I mean they pick up things quickly, not that they can do things quickly. I also agree in part with you Dude, I just believe the strongest influence in a child’s life is (Usually) the parents. I would like to believe we help lay their foundations. We are not alone in doing this, but hopefully we are a big part of it. There will always be outside influences, and they increase as our children become more independent. Our goal is to teach, and to emulate the behaviors on how to deal with the influences within our lives.
