[blparent] toddler in crowds

[Veronica Smith]

Jo elizabeth, just because someone mentioned it, it doesn't mean it is so
like you said.  It was just a thought that in some cases, not necessarily
meaning this one,  it could happen.  I think she was saying in some realms
it is a possibility.  Of course, you are right not at age 2.  But it is nice
to know what is out there.  It is nice to know what exists for the future. V

It's like saying that everybody who breathes might develop asthma some day. 
Everybody breathes, all toddlers wander.  Some people get asthma, but it's 
not because they breathe.  Some toddlers get ADHD, but it's not because they

wander, or we'd all have ADHD because we all wandered!
