My son recently took the Wisc. When the tester gave me the results, she first quipped, "well you didn't prep him, like so many of the parents who come through here." At first I thought she was joking, but she was dead serious and my jaw dropped when she recounted how often it happens. We live near one of the big cities on the east coast. I just couldn't believe it. I suppose my naivete was showing, but I am still shocked that it is as common as it is. And what happens when the kid finds out someday that the parent attempted to cheat and inflate the results of the kid's IQ test? Yuck!
