I really do try very hard to respect Miss Seagoon's judgement and personal preferences. I am very much of the belief that everyone in a family is equal and has equal say. Might not have say so or responsibility but everyone counts.

For example, Miss Seagoon might not like a B'day present I got her. That's fine. She can give it away to a friend who does like it. She has other gifts and I will get her another thing. It's not a problem.
