		<description><![CDATA[Thank you, Dr Titzer and  http://yourbabycanread.com/index.php/ 
Buying this system is best thing I ever did for my child&#039;s education.
 
Add my name name to the long list of parents with
babies who can read thanks to this new system:
 
This System works!

My Baby Can Read, and he is 18 months old.
“The Kids aren&#039;t reading the words, they are just memorizing the words?”
That is like saying:
“The Kids aren&#039;t eating the food they are just swallowing the food.” It simply Does not make sense. Why are they trying to redifine what it means to read? In modern education it is referred to as &quot;Sight Reading&quot; and is considered to be the first step in reading. 

I purchased the &quot;Your Baby can Read&quot; system while my wife was pregnant and following instructions, started him on the program promptly on the day he turned 3 months. I of course have also been reading books to him every day since before he was even 3 months and started him on board books since he was old enough to focus.

I originally purchased the deluxe 5 part set from Amazon, but now days you can get it on the yourbabycanread website for like $150 or something, an excellent deal for the extensive materials you will receive. I had watched the infomercials for years and told myself I would get the system for my kid if I ever had one.

It is also my formal undergraduate training in Biological and developmental psychology, that allowed me to understand just how different the &quot;Your Baby can Read&quot; program really is from everything else available on or off market. And now years later, my hunch about the &quot;Your Baby can Read&quot; system, has rewarded me in ways that I only dreamed of.

I started him on the &quot;Your Baby can Read&quot; system at 3 months and he has been loving the system ever since. I have not followed the instructions of the system as closely as I could have, I suppose, but I have been very busy, and we have been commuting halfway across the globe. With that said, I have been showing him the videos almost every day since he was 3 months old, I have been doing the flip up books and the sliding flashcards several times per week.  He demands the videos even though he doesn&#039;t care to much for other TV(he hates &quot;Teletubbies&quot; and is utterly bored by &quot;Baby Einstien&quot;). In fact one of the first words he ever learned to say was &quot;DVD&quot; but when he pronounces it, it sounds more like &quot;DDD&quot;, he learned this exclusively so he could tell me to put the &quot;Your Baby can Read&quot; dvds on.  I have noticed his attention span for the videos has been increasing dramatically, when I started him at three months he could barely make it through the first one, now he watches one right after the other. 

I tried the regular advanced flashcards with no picture for the first time a couple weeks ago, and to my amazement, he immediately began pointing to his nose, eyes, feet, etc., when I showed him the corresponding flashcards, with no prompting, or pictures or anything, on the very first try! It absolutely blew my mind. It is very clear to me now that he understands and reads many more words than he speaks.


I did not train him with the non picture flashcards at all, but he already knew many of them, from the video and sliding flashcards and books. I been have taking a much closer look at the &quot;Your Baby can Read&quot; system over the last couple of weeks and started implementing some of the other techniques and games outlined in the &quot;Your Baby can Read&quot; program. I decided to by another deluxe system on amazon and I could not find it, when I started googling for another source that
is when I discovered they had gone out of business. 

the &quot;Your Baby can Read&quot; work is both paramount and
historical in my opinion, we are at a crossroads in education, I believe, 
as leaps in cognitive science are gradually becoming mainstream. 
Dr Titzer stumbled on some of this science, discovered, further
clarified, expounded, assimilated, and formulated it into a simple effective system, that works brilliantly.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[To Franklin:
Do you know France, ever been there? We also have freedom of religion and expression, but also freedom of non-religion, which, in practice, is not really the case in America.
Religion is everywhere in America, and religious people (there are so many of them in America) really make you feel uncomfortable when they realize you are agnostic. (More than 80 % of Americans claim to belong to a religious denomination and more than 60% are Christians (better being one of them). 40 % claim to attend services nearly every week or more, and 58 % claim to pray at least weekly. Only 0.4% are atheist, and 0.5% agnostic) 
No, I don’t pray, I don’t go to church and I’m not generous and good because some divinity tells me I have to be good and generous, otherwise I’ll go to hell. What makes me suspicious about the kindness of religious people is when they tell they are doing this or that because their god asks them to do it. In other words, it doesn’t come from their heart, but from an order. This looks like they would not do it if they were not asked to do it!!! History and news support that: war and violence rhyme with religion. Look at America, for sure the most violent of all the Western country, and also the most religious. In Western Europe, nobody risks his/her life because he/she is getting in politics. In the States, yes.
I just try to be good and be generous because I feel this is the way it should be, because I know that everybody needs love and attention, just like me. 
Just say you’re agnostic or atheist in North America, and people look at you differently. For some of them, it’s worse than being a Muslim. For us Europeans, the American way looks like coming back to the 12th century, under the inquisition. Swearing on the Bible in Court was still done not so long time ago!!! In Canada, marriage is by default religious – and Christian. You need derogation if you are Muslim. If you are agnostic or atheist, it has to be multi-confessional. A joke or what!!! I know what I’m talking about: I got married there.]]></description>
