At least my parents would praise me when I got something right, and I always knew they were paying attention when they were poking fun at me.

I wished I had taken the time to elaborate in earlier posts but my growing up experience was much the same as yours James. Loving Parents who might of did things a bit different than the norm but they were def on the right track weither I knew it or not. I have no regrets.
