My parents always tought me as a child to take good care of our things so that they would last as long as possible. It worked well with me, and my husband and I practicied it in our houehold, when we were alon and when we were raising our children. Just a short time ago, our youngest daughter thanked us for the lessons she learned as a child, for their instructions to their children in reards to cleaning whirlpool bathtub and other porcelein has allowed the family to have articles of luxury and comfort for long periods of time. She hopes those lessons will be transferred to their grandchildren as well.
