Cranfield Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 There is a time in our life that we all turn into our parents (or Grandparents). You find yourself saying to friends children that you haven't seen for awhile, "haven't you grown, the last time I saw you , you were only this tall". This always made me cringe when people said it to me, but I now find myself saying it. Intolerance to young peoples current fashion, music tastes and volumes, diet, manners etc., are all symptoms. Although you scoffed when your parents showed exactly the same intolerance to you when you were a teenager, there is nothing you can do to stop your metamorphis into them. Its part of the aging process.........................................damn I feel quite depressed now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
