Slow down first to stabilize and focus - counterintuitive at first but echoed wisdom

So easy to forget in the heat of the moment!

Interesting article: Has anyone studied the gender differences in reaction? I'll bet most mothers would automatically (no slow thought) put full attention on the child. Do guys have to think about it?

Cindy, I would sincerely hope everybody would slow down automatically. Think that's one where even if you slow down, you might be at your half-best from everything else going on. And more importantly, most things coming into our to-do list aren't as clear cut for we should pull over and prioritize the child.
