Thank you for the congrats! I know, kids go nuts over anyone who'll play with them and not tell them off every three seconds. The place I was at was very big on 'being firm' with the kids. Fair enough, so am I, but for Pete's sake - you can discipline a child and still treat them respectfully, just like you can give orders and be nice about it. It's a bit worrying when you've got all these people saying, "Wow - you're so nice to them." Like it never occurred to them that they could be too. *headslap*
