As the mother of two girls who are now teenagers, one of whom has epilepsy, I know that parents have very different value systems and ways of making decisions for their kids so you just have to roll with what comes your way. It is not too soon for your daughter to learn this. Keep going the way you are... it is definitely the best way!!!
