[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP: How old are you and how old are your parents? We are older parents and the grandparents were just too old to really get into the kids. At about age 58-65 the parents realize that this is their time to travel, do things, start that hobby and so on. They know that if they wait later, they will not have the energy to enjoy these things that they looked forward to for so long. So while the kids are delightful, other things are calling. Also there is the issue of how you parent and having accidents. Our parents wee really too old to take care of the kids and they did not love when the babysitter came over (because it made them feel old) -- they were old. 70 is old in general no matter how spry they look.[/quote] +1 [/quote]
