willful ignorance stems from fear, Fear of change, fear of reality, fear of the truth. But recovery is preferable to condemnation I think. Does piss ya off sometimes though. I'm sure my ignorance pushes some folks patience at times.Not in my opinion. The more balanced parent would seem to be the best one to raise the kids.
Ludlow, stupidity is easy to deal with, it is ignorance that is a toughie (especially the willful type of ignorance).
