[quote=Anonymous]It’s both. My child is donor conceived and while all I wanted was to be a mom, I did get quite a bit of choice in the other 50% of genetics. I picked someone who was a good balance to my traits and I really see that shine through now in my very well-rounded child. At the same time, I think the most important decision I made as a parent is the school. My child is growing up with a peer group that is a good influence on them and I have parents by my side who share our values. But I also think any child has a tipping point. The precocious child can become clever at avoiding parent’s involvement. A gifted child can be twice exceptional and have challenges that come with that. So I really see parenting as just a do your best and hope for the best. [/quote]
