I've enjoyed reading through your discussion ILG and PO... good luck with your birthday discussion with your daughter about the birth control hobby horse ILG

I hope it goes well, and that your daughter can understand it more clearly.
I have a friend who raised her children very conservatively. They both went off to university, a Christian university at that, and came home staunch liberals/democrats. Apparently this is because professors demand you see things their way, and if you don't conform, you don't grade well, and they eventually persist until it is very hard to know what you believe. My friend was heartbroken when she realized both her children, raised in a loving, God-fearing, conservative home who went off to a "christian" university, both came out with liberal views.
