As I set here contemplating what is the true source of all the anger and frustration I've felt and read about on this forum. I think about a story that my daughter shared w/ me about my granddaughter when she was about 18 months old.....She walked into the kitchen and pulled the frig. door open and spotted her sippy cup....She looked up at her Mother for approval...Her Mother said you can have it, so she grabbed it and took a hit of it....Stuck it back into the Frig...shut the door and started walking away...So her mother said..."I thought you wanted it?
