However she finally choose to let it be and let him wear different color shoes. She warned him that he might be made fun of, but he didn't care. <BR/><BR/>He was just expressing his creative side and his individuality. I believe that we as a society have too many "rules" today and we expect all of the kids to line up like ducks and follow-along. Rather than allow them to express their creativity to be INDIVIDUALS. <BR/><BR/>I also went to a seminar a few years ago and the keynote was a painter. He had CRAZY DADDY time with his kids. He allowed them to cover themselves with shaving cream, roll in the mud and do other crazy things. It was wonderful!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
