i think one of the most important thing about parenting, well, for ALL people anyway, but especially parents, is empathy.
you get older and you have to set examples, but parents forget that their kids have minds too. bsaically what im sayin, put yourself in their shoes. look from all directions. remember what it was like when you were a kid, things that your parents did that were helpful, and things that your parents did that they THOUGHT were helpful, but really werent. good intentions are sometimes only that, intentions.
also, talking is good. that way you get the actual information instead of assuming. which is odd that im saying that, since i dont say shit to my parents. but thats just how ive opereated all my life. has worked so far though, not that theres much i have to hide anyway.. so i guess they got lucky.
or unlucky ;)
oh yeh., my worst fear...... hm. ill hafto get back to ya on that one. but odds are its something about preggers too. like gettin pregant when i didnt want to. ugh, that would really suck cuz i have all these plans already and shit.
