What the experts don't know might drive you crazy

"As we reported in this story, we were struck by how clueless so many 'experts' in child development were about the new genetics—and how resistant they were to it. Almost all were unaware of the studies showing that genetics acts as a filter between environment and child, letting some influences in and keeping others out. 'Even the stuff published in the best journals ignores the underlying genetics,' says one leader in the field." Newsweek.

The entire article is worth a read. Bottom line: it doesn't always work like they say it will because some kids are different.
