The definition I give to my children: It is the ability to make good decisions.
That is a very reasonable definition, but having grown up playing Dungeons & Dragons, making good decisions strikes me as Wisdom, not Intelligence.
Very "intelligent" people can use those smarts to justify or rationalize all kinds of crazy stupid decisions.
