Isn't it nice to see reflected back to us how our parenting styles are being passed down to the next generation. I hope that they will feel less conflict when doing what FEELS right because they saw their parents do it, too. My 13 year old daughter will give me a look of horror if we're in a grocery store and somebody is being unnecessarily harsh with a young child. She also reminds me (as I have with her) when I'm losing my temper at times with my 2 year old, "Mom, he's only a baby!" Little children love her. She's a real natural with them, having helped mother two boys. She's also much more comfortable with her breasts and body in general than I was at that age, having watched me nursing so much. -Lucy Towbin, LCSW, IBCLC *********************************************** The LACTNET mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software together with L-Soft's LSMTP(TM) mailer for lightning fast mail delivery.
