..it's funny the phases you go through as a parent..those worries, will this world be ok for them, will they survive, will they grow, will they thrive, will they be happy, will they be confident etc...and then will the fridge ever hold enough food because they're growing and thriving quite quickly here and steady on a bit..anyways, I think that if you can look at your children as adults and see that you haven't passed on all of your own insecurities/anxieties/stresses etc..projected all of your rubbish bits, then you've done ok...all of the great bits about them, they've fairly much done for themselves...
