I went to amazon.com to look into this book. Just the description of the
book and the reviews had me bawling. I am ordering it this week for sure. My
oldest (7) has told me that he wants to live with me when he grows up and
has said that he will take care of me when I am old. He is so sweet. I wish
I had (lots of things, but this time) trusted myself more when he was a baby
and known folks who did attachment parenting. I have taken to carrying my
very spirited 3 yr old around a lot more and she is calmer. Just wanted to
write a little thanks to you folks. I don't always agree with everything I
see here but I find information and support that is hard to come by
outside. And Joel, I am working on a clear answer to your question, just
don't have much time to think these days. <g>
