Questions: what parenting choices have you made that you never, ever would have thought you'd make before you made that choice? And do you think that was a good choice?

Note: this isn't to say one style of parenting is better than another, just different and valid choices that we made and if we liked the choice we made. Clearly I didn't think the choices I made were correct at some point in my life, maybe you found the opposite to me. Would like to hear it all.

For me, as a teenager I was very anti-cloth nappies. Liebling wore them for three and a half years and I loved them. I think good choice.
I never really considered babywearing around the house until I had a baby who liked to be held a lot and a friend showed me a comfortable carrier (I wasn't sold on the baby bjorn I'd been lent). Good choice.
I never considered telling Liebling "no" to a feedy until I'd been injected with a radioactive substance and was told I couldn't breastfeed for 24 hours. Had to be done but bad choice - speeded up the weaning process.
I never considered not praising my child until I realised he didn't respond as well to praise as he did to validating his own feelings. Good choice, but hard work for me.
