Where I'm totally up for letting him try the pudding at the local buffet, after I've advised against it - there are some mistakes - that even with every ounce of will and being inside me - I could not stand by and watch him make. Not after I've seen it pollute and and infect so many people.

However, about always being there through the good and the bad is -so- true.
I hope to provide him with that through his childhood, as I didn't really have someone to talk to about the messy things when things got rough.
