What is the secret to raising a child like Bill Gates?
According to the book, Raising Intuitive Children, by Caron Goode and Tara Paterson, Bill Gates is one of six types of intuitive intelligences. On the chart, find the Creative Intuitive. In the book we discuss the intuitive learner likes Gates as being entrepreneurial when young. Even as a child, the ideas are flowing through...try this, experiement with that, write, create...test and try.... A creative child can no more turn off the faucet of inspiration or music playing in his head than Einstein could turn off the abstract universe. They don't hang out mentally on our radio station. If we want their attention and conversation, we have to dial their radio station.
If creative intuitive kids have their head in the clouds, they see potential and possibility.
The rest of us may just see clouds or fog.
William R Gates, father of Bill, wrote, "Perhaps there's a lesson in this for the parents of other curious children who, from the start, require the freedom to meet life on their own terms: It is that there is no statute of limitations on the dreams you have for your children."
Actually, there is no statute of limitations on their dreams either. Read an adaptation of the story of raising Bill Gates in a book by his father. http://money.cnn.com/2009/04/15/technology/gates_secrets.fortune/index.htm
