11:28 PM - Damaged goods Although I have often failed as a parent, today is the first time that I truly feel like a failure. As a result of my negligence and lack of discipline, my son (who had been the picture of perfect health since day one) underwent dental surgery today to remove an abscessed tooth. The little trooper hardly even complained. I am particularly saddened about our failure to drill in the discipline of toothbrushing because we were blessed with such a perfect healthy child at the beginning, who became ill only because we failed to instill the sort of self-discipline in mundane matters which ought to be the first responsibility of every decent parent to inculcate in their children. How I hate learning such lessons the hard way. (
