Bill's comment was interesting. The main thing I got from Harris is
that you *can* affect how much fun your kid has while he/she is around
you, and how much they like you in the future. As she says, you don't
spend time with your spouse in order to "mold" her, but to have fun
together; why would kids be any different?

"We may be dissatisfied with television for two quite different
reasons: because our set does not work, or because we dislike
the program we are receiving. Similarly, we may be dissatisfied
with ourselves for two quite different reasons: because our body
does not work (bodily illness), or because we dislike our
conduct (mental illness)."
