Yea but who wants to be 80 with a teenager around?
You mean besides Michael Jackson, Mark Foley, Bill Clinton, and Barney Frank?
Conversely, who wants to be a teenager with an 80 year old around?
Lots of people. Grandparents, for one. And I know a lot of grandparents who are very active in their teenaged grandchildren's lives.
Older parents might even make better parents. They are more fearless, don't want to be their child's "best friend," and less willing to give in to childishness.
The better question is, who wants to be a teenager with an 80 year old parent? ^_^'''
