Bad Parenting Premise And American Idol's New Formula

From the latest issue of Parenting magazine. "...raise the next Steve Jobs. (or at least a really, really bright kid."

Which Jobs? The narcissistic, crude, greedy boss who treated his employees with disrespect?

Bah.

"..Or at least a really, really bright kid" infers Jobs was a genius. Innovative and really smart perhaps but not a genius.

American Idol, I noticed, has taken a whole new route. Gone seems to be the days of laughing at bad singers who thought they were idol material. Instead the program has the novel idea of focusing on, you know, the talent.
