There are the parents that you envy. Their child is well behaved, on the honor roll, in the class musical, class president, just a joy in their lives. Then there are the parents that you wonder about. Their child is a terror, class bully, barely makes a passing grade, needs a tutor, constantly challenging your patience. Both parents started with a cute little baby. What happened along the way? What did they do wrong? What did they do right?
I have the most loving sweet dog I could ever want. He snuggles with me while I watch TV. He lets me brush him and trim his nails. He smiles non-stop after a long walk. He doesn't dig in the yard. He doesn't poop or pee in the house. He eats anything I give him. He loves his crate. But I have the child that needs a tutor, needs a time-out, needs a spankin', needs detention. I wish I knew what I did wrong.
