Thanks for this. I do need to remind myself to model a good attitude for my kids. I am very self-critical, and can be pretty critical of others too. I see this trait in my DS11, so I'm trying to be a better model for him. I will have a look at the Sylvia Rimm book some time soon when I'm feeling like I can read it without going on the "self-blamathon" that Grinity was talking about!
