Smarter we get with generations

Surprising was to see my 3 year old nephew operating his father's laptop like a professional. He works through the latest gizmos of his generation, has the ability to operate the hi-tech latest mobile phones.
The level of intelligence increases with every generation and this has been scientifically proved. People are getting smarter with improvement in their IQ (Intelligence Quotient) levels. The reason is the wide spread of education and availability of on hand technology. We live in a knowledge society and in an information age. It requires brushing our brains for all kind of jobs which include analytic and reasoning powers.
The combination of exposure, globalization and nutrition leads to better performance of an individual. Some other factors include rise of nuclear families, increase in number of university graduates, growing technology, greater competitions among peers and greater interest shown by parents in a child’s intellectual development.
The other side of the truth is that parents are being too extracting and punishing. Over-exposure to technology has a detrimental impact on the ability to understand or the ability to endure in difficult situations.
IQ is considered to be the genetic factor. The one with a higher IQ is considered to be clever. This factor has been affecting the EQ (Emotional Quotient) in a search for a better person. However, according to experts that is not fact but a mere belief. It’s not only about IQ but whether people are able to sustain relationships at home and the workplace.
