Conflicts do arise.
I don't recall having ANY phobias of note until after giving birth for the first time thirteen years ago. Hormones must have had something to do with it. This acrophobia set in slowly. I had little babies back then in the eighties and little babies are in obvious need of protection. As my husband, Blair, snored soundly through the night, the slightest whimper, thud, or whine from one of my infants was enough to arouse me from the deepest slumber.
