A lot of genuinely smart people don’t walk around thinking, I’m intelligent. In fact, some of the sharpest people I’ve met tend to underestimate themselves. They’re not always the loudest person in the room. They’re not always the most impressive on paper, either. They might not have the fanciest job title, the highest grades, or ...

My daughter is three years old and already her childhood looks nothing like mine. She has a schedule. A routine. Structured play, supervised activities, and two parents who are almost always within arm’s reach.
