Even though it's hard at first, you don't have to worry about changing diapers and wiping bottoms anymore once it's done. Some kids take a while to catch onto the whole toilet thing, but when you're a parent, there's a ticking time bomb forci…

Some kids are built for academic tests and some just aren't. But failing at a pop quiz doesn't necessarily mean a kid isn't smart. In fact, a certain kind of “ technically correct ” wrong answer is often a testament to a kid's cleverness.
