And unlike Dr. Spock, W. Cleon Skousen actually raised kids, including a bunch who weren't his own.
I couldn’t possibly have gotten through my first baby without Dr. Spock. He was wonderful about illness and many other things.
He was a bit of a socialist in that he thought it would be a great idea and save money in the long run to have the government pay mothers to stay home and raise their own children.
Like many ‘good’ liberal ideas, that wouldn’t have worked, but, on the whole, I think the good Doc Spock has gotten a bad rap.
