True ,true!
Unfortunitely it seems in today society there is this modern academic pride. We need to follow what the 'experts' tells us which is printed in some book. Needless to say most of them don't even have children. Alot of the parenting practices has been past on from parent to child. And although some may have been harmful even with some good intentions alot of the practices are very good but just don't have the official ' backing' of the current academics and 'experts'.
