Having both a child and parents, I can see both sides of the issue. I know I can be a pain to my son at times, and I know I can be the same to my parents.

My folks are both about 82, and I really don't know how much longer I'll have them in my life; my mom has several health issues and my dad has both congestive heart failure and Parkinson's. I love them both dearly and dread the day I will no longer have them. However, I know that day will come. While they are around, I will cherish each day. While in Korea, I talk with them on Skype most every morning; I make sure to give them my love to finish off each conversation.

How often have they said the same thing about you?

"Honey, your son is eating dirt again."
"Dear one, he is just rebelling because you took the green beans out of his ears."
