STEP ONE:

The doctor hands you a squalling baby

STEP TWO:

Fast forward eighteen years

STEP THREE:

That should be your primary goal.  Teaching your children HOW TO THINK. 

Old Chinese proverb, "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day.  Teach him how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime."
