Most of us learn rather quickly from that.<br/>I have to hold myself back with my two kids sometimes... but then I realize that I am just trying to avoid MY OWN heartache when I see them hurt.<br/>Besides... part of my family's genetics went into making L.'s head... I know how much abuse that thing can take before you have to worry about damage. :-P It is amazing how well you understand the need for we humans have to have felt pain.
