Oh, this is too good... egalia over at TGW has pointed us to a study that has found that confident, resilient, self-reliant kids mostly grow up to be liberals.
With good parenting, we wouldn't have any Republicans. Heh.It all just makes so much sense! ;-D
At the risk of sounding like a braggart, I'd just like to say that all my children are bleeding heart liberals. Yeah, no whiners!
According to the study, whiny insecure kids grow up to be "rigid" Republicans who follow "traditional gender roles" and are "uncomfortable with ambiguity." That's about as good a description of Bushie as you can find.
And liberals? "[C]onfident, resilient, self-reliant kids" mature into liberals, or "bright, non-conforming adults with wide interests."
And this is not the first study to conclude that miserable children turn into conservatives.

Hey Alice,
What a great title!
Some studies just document plain old fashioned common sense. Everybody, cept the clueless, knows this stuff already. Heh.
I think our community should require good parenting classes. It really is the right thing to do for our children, society and the world. :)
