I always was kind of a wild child. I know my mother (and my father) had moments of despair, especially when I was a teenager. Whew. I've actually mellowed out considerably. For instance, I don't jump out of airplanes anymore.
Mine wasn't tame, probably a few things that would disqualify me from office (unless, of course, I ran as a Demorat). I don't think wild childhoods disqualify us once and for all.
It's when your kids go through it that you start to realize maybe it wasn't the greatest idea to be wild......
