Being made to feel like an irrelevant child was probably an asset. Benign negligence is not a bad parental attitude or at least a cross between a benevolent dictator and benign negligence - you should just let kids crack on with it.
Clare BaldingI've always been fascinated by intelligence and how our brains work, and how they can be improved.
Clare BaldingI have learned not to take too much notice of those who disapprove of my lifestyle choices, because I know that I was not designed to be part of the crowd. If I am different, I make no apology, and I hope that others will have the courage to be themselves and stand up for what they believe in, fight for those who need protection, love who they want to love, and be proud of it.
Clare BaldingI find people interesting. People trying hard are interesting. People with a passion are interesting - whether its old cars or taxidermy or knitting.
