I dunno LovebirdsFlying. You asked a good question.

Do you think it's because we always did the opposite of what authority figures told us to do? Now we are the ones in charge. Now we are the granmas?

Maybe it's because our grandparents were so old when we were kids...seems like people aged faster then? My grandmother (mom's mom) was dead before I was even
born. People didn't age well. I feel much younger than my mom behaved at my age.

If we do the stuff they did, we're destined to get old the way they did?

Good thought, good question. Thanks--------------------------Pax theo
