I respectfully disagee, Norad. From the time they start walking & talking, Mom & Dad get dumber everyday. By the time they are teenagers, we have become so ignorant, it's all they can do to manage to live in the same house as us parents. When they get to be around 25, The become totally amazed at how much we have learned in the previous 10 years. Then we start in with senility and have to start depending on them.
Life is cruel!!!!
