***I wanted to emphasize Mary's point here - because we see this
assumption made over and over - that kids will choose what is not
good for them and, therefore, a parent's job is to set limits to make
sure they do what is good for them. Well, yes, just like adults, kids
WILL sometimes choose what is not good for them. Do WE always do what
we know is good for us?***
