Which child can be smarter, a girl or a boy?

Asker: murat, 11 years old

Answer

Dear Murat,

It is not as easy to measure someone’s “smartness” as, say, a person’s weight or height. There is a test to measure intelligence called the IQ test. It shows that boys and girls are about equally smart … or equally stupid 😉
