 This is one of those things to me that sometimes our "automatic response" has to be examined because it isn't necessarily fair or valid. |
So what are you saying? That I'm a fool to trust my gut feeling about people? Please... Some people are not good at reading others, but when it comes to my child, I trust very few people..male and female.
