About this listen

In just a few years, today's children and teens will forge careers that look nothing like those that were available to their parents or grandparents. While the US economy becomes ever more information-driven, our system of education seems stuck on the idea that "content is king", neglecting other skills that 21st century citizens sorely need.

Becoming Brilliant offers solutions that parents can implement right now. Backed by the latest scientific evidence, this book introduces the "6Cs": collaboration, communication, content, critical thinking, creative innovation, and confidence, along with ways parents can nurture their children's development in each area.

Political Examples...why?

Great framework. The issue is the length of the book. Too long for the information. Seems really redundant at times. A good infographic could cut out 100 pages.

The politicization within the book is a complete tangent. It was not needed for a book about raising children and hindered the message. I think the authors should have written a second book to express their political views.

Overall I still enjoyed the book and would recommend it.
