Summary

This quote implies that if a person has a highly intelligent child, they will constantly face the challenge of explaining and justifying the choices they make in their lives. As the child's intelligence may lead to questioning, criticizing, or challenging their decisions, the parent must consistently provide logical and reasonable explanations to justify their actions. This can be a significant task, requiring the parent to navigate discussions and debates with their intelligent child, ultimately shaping their own perspectives and decision-making process.
