A friend of mine just posted this on FB. Even though I have no young children, I do have two awesome daughters (birth and step) that may one day have girl's themselves.
The advice in this article is just plain awesome particularly for daughters, but for sons as well.

People I want to punch in the throat...

I have heard of this books quite often, and just kind of forgotten about it right afterwards :blink: . This time I felt compelled to order it, so I did.
I will read it, pass it on to my Britaini, and then on to Taylor. I love my girls, and I want them to be informed.
'The Gift of Fear' is the title of the book, btw. You can click the link and order it within the article.

EXCELLENT!!! I wholeheartedly second the advice to read The Gift of Fear by Gavin DeBecker (security expert). I have it and have read it at least three times, and will read it again, I'm sure. FANTASTIC book. Should be a MUST READ for everybody, really.

Here's another article about the pressure to look good that's excellent (courtesy Madea):

Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove:
O no! it is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;

Thank you Mei Lan. I have heard him speak several times (on tv) and thought "I need to get that book"... just never did till now. I'll have it by Monday and I am going to pass it on.


Headed to read that article now...
