Raising kids is hard. If they ask me a question, I try to ask them questions I might ask myself to lead to the answer. Only a few times have I handed them answers on a platter, although with children sometimes you have to be bluntly obvious

My eldest has always tested above average, although I don't place much faith in standardized testing. She was borderline gifted program. The younger one is scrappy and has always reached milestones earlier due to her sister helping her along.

My wife and I are oceans apart on politics and we are in open war over where to live, LOL. But we agree on how to raise children, and we both want to expose them to as much as we can, not hand them answers, and let them be who they are, not who we want them to be.
