Most parents have a good idea of their children's strengths.
For example, if the child's custom profile indicates a strong linguistic intelligence, parents will be given ways to improve these talents, such as taking the child frequently to libraries, making sure that the child has access to a variety of books, asking the child to keep a diary or journal, and asking the child to write and read aloud summaries of the family's weekly activities. The custom profile also gives parents detailed online and offline information, resources, and activities that can both reinforce their child's talents and strengthen the other intelligence areas.
