It brought back so many memories of my past and the way I raised my children.. I owe each of them an apology for the way I reacted to their personalities. They are in their 30's now, but it's never too late to set things right. I thought I was doing the right thing then, but really I was trying to make them the way I wanted them to be, little perfect men, and they were just young boys. Keep on teaching us Ms Anne. Ms Anne,

Please dont feel like Lindberg when you read this article- I too well up with tears every-time I read the re-print of, "Father Forgets" It touches a nerve with any one who has a heart and children. Further, who among us has not used the wrong tone of voice and said the wrong thing to young impressionable children? Hopefully, being reminded, changes that for those who read this article. It does for me, ANNE CLEVELAND CHIEF EDITOR HI KENT,
