"I'd concur with others Emlyn, if you are educating her about bacteria
and she understands them at the age of 5, you are doing a great job
as a parent."
I just wonder about the above statement (nothing else then wonder).
Is this a "new trend" in being a great parent or is just overkill? Is
quite
possible that Emlyn's daughter is a "little genius" but what about
the other
kids? Should we (parents and grand parents) read them bed time stories
full
with microbiology and astronomy scientific explanations or should we
just
"let the fables to tickle their imagination"?
Is an ordinary 5 year old ready for scientific explanations as the one
about
bacteria or is just the parents trying very hard to "sync" the kids with
their
own environment?
