Do you think possibly these optimistic types may just be more competitive then the norm, and that's actually what they are doing, being competitive? I think some people are more optimistic than others, but they can be very irritating just as the pessimistic can be. I find the pessimistic to be a lot more fun at times because they really tell the truth, and the truth is funny.
I'd have to interview the kids that had to live with both types, and see what they thought.

Nobody glides through childrearing in MHO it's too difficult to glide through. I think a lot of people wouldn't do it over (have kids) if they had the choice.
