Abstract
Any casual observer of my daily activities might accuse me of child-centered parenting, which Michael Mascolo, Ph.D., of Psychology Today defines as "parenting organized around the needs and interests of the child, rather than those of the parent." Preposterous! My parenting isn't organized at all. Also, as the only man of the house, I only do what I darn well please, except when I'm attending and providing transportation to every type of adolescent practice and performance known to humanity, not to mention innumerable shopping trips to purchase expensive outfits and equipment-and various unmentionable lady products.
