I thought I would be, because my mother was "always right".<BR/><BR/>Hopefully the difference will be that I will have a great relationship with my daughter 25 years from now, because I was able to regularly say - "I was wrong."<BR/><BR/>I have a terrible relationship with my own mother, because to this day, she is still "always right." which has translated into a huge loss for us both.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6245589515098482899.post-71030051738771547162008-05-22T20:30:00.000-04:002008-05-22T20:30:00.000-04:00JimmyEW and I say they are an ongoing science expe...JimmyEW and I say they are an ongoing science experiment.<BR/><BR/>I said I wouldn't co-sleep.
