		<description><![CDATA[Parenting is not rocket science. It&#8217;s harder than rocket science*. There&#8217;s an old Chinese lore that&#8217;s stuck in my mind, that I&#8217;d heard when I was a child, decades before I became a parent. I&#8217;ll have to paraphrase and take some creative liberties because I can&#8217;t remember the exact details of the story. There is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Other than empathizing with a young child&#8217;s physicality (smaller, weaker, easily ignored/overlooked), remember that very young children (one and two year olds) are also working with limited language and cognition/cognitive complexity.
