it's nice to give credit to good parenting...but sometimes I think in spite of that, things can be hard wired and not turn out as one would hope, as a parent.. indeed "if only" good parenting could guarantee a desired (by the parent of course) result , it would be marvellous. the nice thing and sometimes not so nice..is that we teach our children things...and they also help us grow up ...at least I credit my children with helping me see some of my blind spots..other blind spots i thankfully remain blind about. frances wren

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
