No joke, we used to visit every year growing up. Then a lot of years past and I had kids of my own I took last year- it’s disheartening.
Trying it out right now! So far looks great!
Fine. It’s not even a concession to say that people are a mix of nature and nurture. But people assume that saying there exists such bell curve for intelligence is the same thing as saying that people’s worth is on a bell curve, and no one is suggesting that (or at least I’m not).
It’s ok to say that there exists natural differences between people.
