My family thoroughly enjoys the plethora of knowledge available at their fingertips.

I'm a scientist and my wife is a public elementary reading teacher.

My wife and I value curiosity above most traits. We have read thousands and thousands of books to our kids already. Both of our children are remarkable. I'm not even doing the normal parental exaggerations but they are both likely geniuses.

When I was a kid I couldn't even read. I was much more concerned with things like food and not getting arrest for being poor. It is remarkable the difference some resources can be. It is even more sad when most the kids don't even utilize those resources.
