In this article, the author suggested some various steps to the parents to raise their baby's IQ test. He claimed that these pointed out objectives boost their baby's IQ in reliable way. One of these elements is speaking to you baby; this may help him gains a lot of vocabulary and enriches his language.

In addition, the author mentioned that speaking with fingers is helpful for the baby as well. Breastfeed is one the crucial suggestions, this helps the baby to avoid chronic infancy diseases.

Reaction:
I think it is such a good idea to list some suggestions telling what the parents have to do in order to help their baby's getting high IQ scores, however I think all these elements may boost the baby's a plenty of IQ test but may cause him dependency and low self-esteem. I think we should avoid pushing him too much information, because this make him sick of learning at the age of eighteen regardless whether he got high scores or not. Even if the parents want to communicate with him, they have to play the friend role not the teacher one, because the baby's ,especially at the early ages like to play more hours than elder ones and not wanting to be controlled. Although I found some points which I think helpless, I found other elements really magnificent and helpful for baby's IQ test such as breast feeding.
