Subject: Re: [Puptcrit] Great With Kids Defined


Paul-
Honestly it seems to be one of those things that people think you are or you aren't.
I have been told for ages that I was "great with kids" and all I did wasn't talk down to them and treat them like people rather than babies.
Sometimes it is as simple as that you listen to the kids and they know that you heard them which can be unusual for them.
Now that I am a Mom, my "great with kids" is now an assumed since I have kids.
