The key to the breast-feeding and the child discipline problems are both in the area of consideration for others. This is something that seems to be lacking in a large part of the population. Yes! We should be free to do what we feel is necessary but we should also always think about how it may affect others around us. Breast-feeding is perfectly natural but take care not to offend someone who might not agree. Children should behave but when they do not, their parent should be reminded to take action and not allow the child to disturb people around them. How this is done is up to the parent but the parent must act and not simply ignore the bad behavior. Common courtesy and consideration means that our freedom to do and say what we please also requires that we do not impinge on the same right inherent in others.

I can remember when I was a child that I was always looking for someone to love me. Then, when I grew up I realized that the only one you can control is yourself and the one thing you absolutely cannot do is make someone else love you. The only thing you can do is love others and hope that someone will come to love you. If that happens, you will be lucky and if you recognize it, hold onto her with everything you have. Dawn's problem is that she wants someone else to love her but she is not willing to love someone else. In all those years with all those men she was never willing to commit herself. Why should anyone else commit to her when she is unwilling to reciprocate? You have to be willing to take a chance and hope that you can work it out.
