PhobiasWhat gives you the heebie-jeebies?
It's a bit strong to call this a phobia, but for me it's the thought of biting into a dry flannel. I've no idea why I'd ever want to or even get the opportunity to do so, seeing as I don't own one, but it makes my teeth hurt to think about it. *ewww*
Tell us what innocent things make you go pale, wobbly and send shivers down your spine.

@MordredI know, I know. You're absolutely right. Intellectually, of course kids should be free to make their own mistakes.
But, emotionally, it's a different story.
And I've just deleted around 1000 words trying to explain why.
In short, watching my kids go through some of the same pain as I did is going to be a special kind of hell.
But I'm also wise enough to know that, a lot of the time, you just have to let them make the same old mistakes that every kid's made since the dawn of time.
But it's still going to hurt me.
Cheers
