The whole idea of a smarter kid seems to be the focus of every parent everywhere.The truth is that behind all the propaganda of the so called "Mozart Effect" there really is not much true benefit from it, or so it says Alissa Quart. She describes, and shocks the reader by saying: "Many infant DVDs are full of dubious information about time-limited opportunities for learning. Some products abuse parental fears, invoking the specter of infant brain-cell death." With this statement making it clear that there is a parental fear based capitalism. It is true, that we would all like our kids to be smart and learn fast, but if the price to pay is to be in fear for life, i would much rather have an average kid that learns along with everyone else.
The truth is that, it has not yet been proven that these DVDs work, sure, parents might seem happy about the results over time, but that is the product of many hours of putting kids in front of a screen to watch some "instructive" video.
