Red - I'm glad you found this quote. There are literally hundreds of others thoughout the ages that show that basic issues, like raising children, aren't simple issues and no one has a real handle on the best way to do it. I think it is just human nature to say that 'we' did it better in our day. All we can do is the best we can do.
