    My wife and I agreed to this years ago before we had children to always explain to our kids in detail. I explain engineering and technology, she explains medical science and history.

    I thought we would raise super smart kids but they’d just ask their question, go “oh neat thanks” and then play video games again.

      I used to do this to my nieces and nephews but get scolded for “making fun of the children.” Like it’s my fault that they are universally idiots until somewhere around the third semester of grad school.
