>>The voice of experience. I agree with you completely and have tried to gently make the same point to Kevin. Sometimes I get the impression he expects Katy to be his Mini-Me, sharing his enthusiasms and dislikes. Maybe it will happen that way but IMO it would be an exceptionally docile teen/lpreteen who wants it. Part of growing up is to learn to think for yourself.

No, not much. And I know enough to know that's that's stepping on the third rail to try to tell someone how to raise their child. I don't think that's what Nick meant and I know it wasn't what I meant. More of a caution flag. I considered what he said good general advice.
