    LOL JaneS! I was like that too, and a bit naive, since I perfectionisticly could remember so many mistakes that my parents made, which I wanted to badly to correct.

    In fact, I have often speculated that one could find a positive correlation between baby's IQ and the number of books about babies the Mother read when she was pregnant with child number one. much less than a correlation of '1' - but moderate and positive.

    I love this quote.

    When people ASSume that *I* did something to get DS6 to where he is, it is sooooooo frustrating to me. I wish! I'd be a millionaire right now, and that site proves it!
