I was talking some time ago with my friend about babies and how the brain is developing in very early stages. We were also talking hypothetically should parents make the babies as smart as they can if they have the power to do so.
Our baby is almost 1 year old and soon we have to go to the maternity clinic where they are checking and investigating babies. They are giving some vaccines and probably checking how the baby is developing. Me and my wife have been training and stimulating our son's brains, coordination and physical skills whenever we can. We have bought different toys and finger foods to help him learn.
Our favorite toy is a mathematical cube which has different shaped holes on one side and parts that can fit these holes. Obviously, you have to put those parts inside the box through the holes. To do so, the baby has to understand which part is going to the certain hole. I think maternity clinic is going to do similar tests to our son and they are calling it as block test.
Is it cheating if you are training your child to get better results or is it just the way it should be? What about if there was invented such a vaccine which provides three times more IQ. Is that cheating or just the future and are you ready or willing to do whatever necessary to get your child smarter?
