[quote=Anonymous]For once I actually have something interesting to say here! Perhaps the most famous baby/child doctor/pediatrician of all time was Dr. Benjamin Spock. Dr. Spock worked at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn. from 1947 to 1951. His Baby and Child Care book, over 50 million copies sold, was written and published while he was there, in 1946. My family not only lived in Rochester at the time; we lived next door to Dr. Spock and his family. I was a young child at the time. Years later, when Dr. Spock became a famous liberal, to some left wing, I asked my parents what he had been like. Was he super liberal then? Their response: not that they noticed EXCEPT that in his family, their children called him and his wife by their first names: Benji and ..... I don't remember what his wife's first name was.[/quote]
