Being a parent can be one of the sources of our greatest joys. It is also – intermittently – the cause of some of our deepest sorrows. It is likely that we will spend at least some of the time in despair and confusion, wondering whether it really had to be so hard.

“The child needs to be horrible and rejecting now in order, later, to be authentic appreciative and wise.”
