My wife says she shouldn't be drinking if she is pregnant! Congratulations is your wife hoping for a boy or a girl? It seems funny that the Baby boomers were mostly born to parents who smoked and drank. In 1952 when I started school, no one was ADHD, almost everyone passed, everyone could read, most could write, and most of us could spell, all of us could add subtract multiply and divide, in our heads or on paper. Every class had 34 or 36 kids, and sometimes if it was a good year there was 42. I got the strap a couple of times, usually twice in one day, once at school and then again when I got home. What the devil happened that now we condemn women who smoke or drink, the class sizes are smaller we treat the kids like they are priceless and the quality of the children we are producing is not going up. Ask your wife why that is. Cause after the present kids start school, I am sure their mothers' often feel the need for more than one drink.
