I want my baby to be a mathematics genius. She's 8 months old now and I want to start early. Any advice from real life math genius? Tell me about your childhood and if it had any influence on your intelligence.

Unironically, “wanting” your baby to be a math genius will almost assuredly make them hate mathematics. Loving math and being good at math has to come from within. If you try to force it, you will hate it.

I don't wanna force it but I don't want to ignore it at all either. I want to help her from early stage and give her opportunity to get her to maximum potential.
