Now that you mention it, I most certainly am. My son who was on a leash for a short bit of time graduated Summa Cum Laude from a private college, will get his Master's degree in 1 year (took enough courses in his senior year to achieve that), was on 3/4 academic scholarship his entire time there and is a child EVERY parent wishes for. He has turned into a fine, outstanding young man who never gave me even a minute of trouble. My twins were a little more challenging but have also turned out to be every parent's dream.
