I have a feeling the day might come when my daughter will beg to be a slave of conventional fashion. I'm inclined to resist, if it happens. To press on her the larger truths I finally absorbed from my own wise parents:

But a small corner of my heart still harbors the Bride of Frankenstein, eleven years of age, haunting me in
her brogues and petticoats. Always and forever, the ghosts of past anguish compel us to live through our
children. If my daughter ever asks for the nineties equivalent of go-go boots, I'll cave in.
