It’s my personal belief that our culture has promoted a dumbing-down effect for many years, and that’s why I pledged to give my child every academic advantage possible. If you look at the correspondence and speeches of early American heroes, you’ll be shocked at the level of intellect that was on display in that relatively primitive age. Even without access to quality public education, people pursued knowledge on their own.
In recent years, the incentive has been removed. We have little reason to learn anything about the world around us. Whereas most Canadians are familiar with the United States’ political climate, few Americans take the time to learn about Canada, Mexico or any other countries for that matter. When I found some learning games online, I quickly sought out a program featuring a world atlas and encyclopedia of world history all in one.
