something to add from a childs perspective

:
my parents were "old" compared to my friends parents as I was growing up, which was a lot less common 25 years ago. my mom went in for a physical a couple days ago with a new doctor and the doctor and nurse commented that she couldnt be in her 60's. She told me and I said its because me and my younger sister keep her looking young

I've never felt like I missed out on anything by having "older" parents. As someone previously mentioned the only thing that bums me out is that I worry that if I don't have kids soon my parents will miss out on it.
