Whether or not her step father had shady dealings, doesn't change the fact that he embraced 13 children with autism or downs syndrome as his own. The fact that the <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">daughter</span> has agreed to follow in their footsteps says a lot about their success as parents and role models.<br /><br />Clearly she learned that children who have disablilties like autism and downs syndrome have much to offer in terms of love, laughter and family.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729790853336315478-3950864092407204308?l=parentingprudence.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Parenting Prudence Parkerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13381730135710572515noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729790853336315478.post-21911491844512876852009-07-17T07:41:00.000-07:002009-07-17T08:07:08.717-07:00<span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;color:#3333ff;">Girls have an uncanny talent for knowing which <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">button</span> to press to turn their well behaved mothers into <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">ferocious</span> bears defending their wild cubs. When your daughter tells you that something terrible has happened to her -- assume she is telling the truth from her perspective. Chances are, another little girl is telling her mother the exact same story about your child. The truth is <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">theirs</span> to tell and ours to decode. </span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729790853336315478-2191149184451287685?l=parentingprudence.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Parenting Prudence Parkerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13381730135710572515noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729790853336315478.post-69328150581005232072009-07-16T19:48:00.000-07:002009-07-16T19:49:29.805-07:00Why do young girls always see a prince when all their parents see is a toad???<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4729790853336315478-6932815058100523207?l=parentingprudence.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Parenting Prudence Parkerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13381730135710572515noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4729790853336315478.post-19419704164717427282009-07-16T19:31:00.000-07:002009-07-17T08:10:59.868-07:00My first blog.
