I think I would be a good mother because I am older now and have learned from my friends and family who have kids. I had the shit beaten out of me as a kid by my stepmother. I know not to blame my children for being children. Expecting that they know more than they actually do is only setting myself up for disaster and disappointment. I know that kids are actually wonderful and are full of possibilities, and it's just about finding which possibilities are best to latch on to and develop. Even the asshole kids have great opportunities in them. But like I said, I know this because I am older and have taken the time to learn and study children for who they are and not what I wish they would be.
