This was a joy to listen to. Really appreciate how intelligence was discussed as being contextual; and loved how the relationship between environment and intelligence was explored.
Great conclusions from Dona when she discussed the need for parents to "be present in a loving, patient, dependable, warm way." I'm glad Croydon noted this is hard when parents are worried about paying bills; and I appreciated the discussion of intelligence being a by-product when several factors are being managed well. When you consider all the environmental aspects discussed, it provides enormous insight into why certain kids (and communities) may be underperforming.
Love how the discussion between Croydon and Dona flowed and all the ground it covered. And much respect to Croydon for his humility and thoughtfulness in his own parenting.
