Answer a Question with a Question...

Is that from simply having had more experiences?
or is it developmental that would be part of a natural aging process, regardless of experiences?
 
Graduating high school in 1964, would you believe I enlisted in the U.S. Air Force in 1966... but was refused entry due to extremely poor eyesight?
 
It's younger in the U.K, I think; Is that correct?

And I wonder, how old do people usually graduate high school in Canada, then?
Similar to nearby U.S. Or to U.K.?
 
it is for 6th form colleges, and those which used to be known as technical colleges.. but 18 or 19 for higher grade colleges within universities... did you go to university ?
 
No, ...I'm surprised that all my children did as I set a bad example!

Do you think the attitude of parents and teachers affects a child's progress at school?
 
Aren't the influences of peers and friends, and of society, significant as well,
and stronger influence than parents and teachers, for at least some of the young people?
 
Yes, but some people have surpassed those,
and some others fall short or far differently than those influences;
You haven't personally seen much of that?

I have yet to hear or read successful people who don't name a parent, teacher, neighbor, pastor, or influential advisor whom they acknowledge to have been instrumental in their success.
Don't you think that the early foundation of dedicated, invested parents and teachers is very important, if not essential?
