Natural:
"The child’s book of ducks and pigs was as unfamiliar as a polio virus to our child Alexandra as an infant.
"When people say something is ‘natural’ it means that’s the way they found it when they checked in. Our parents’ traditions are just no longer appropriate. What’s natural for them is not natural for their children.
"If you were a lily you might think you’d grow up as a seed and not be at all prepared to become a flower.
“Unfamiliarity ≠ unnatural.”
