Why are some children are pushed to learn whereas others can achieve the same results naturally?

There is so much to take in culturally and socially that I like to reinforce the moment. We see historical films, visit museums, and discuss contemporary politics in historical terms. Instead of just allowing free-range reading, my usual practice, I will buy historical novels, or take them out of the library.

Recreational reading is almost certainly better for a kid’s intellectual development than watching TV.
