“As a mother I am often confused about how to help my children make wise decisions for themselves. One day I extol the virtues of a free and open education and the next I tell them they can't watch TV until they finish their homework. One day I tell them to eat what they like, their bodies know intuitively what they need; and the next I say, Okay, that's itno more junk food in this house! I flounder like this because I have no training and very little support for this work and there are days when I'm the one who needs the parenting, even more than they do”
