Answer a Question with a Question...

[Kaila]

Did we think we would stay young?

 

[Rosemarie]

Did you ever think you would end up looking like your grandparent?

 

[hollydolly]

Which of your grandparents do you look like ?

 

[mike4lorie]

are you a grandparent?

 

[hollydolly]

Do grandparents always want to be grandparents ?

 

[Rosemarie]

Are they given a choice?

 

[hollydolly]

Would you have chosen to have grandchildren if you could?

 

[Rosemarie]

Definitely, but would it have been right to persuade my children to have them just to please me?

 

[Kaila]

Would they have, for that reason, even if we had tried to?

(which I didn't! and wouldn't! )

 

[hollydolly]

Do your children still pay attention to your advice ?

 

[Pink Biz]

What children?

 

[Rosemarie]

Don't you find that, as you get older,YOU are the one being given advice?

 

[Kaila]

Do people often assume you/we have grandchildren, or children , based solely on our own age group?

 

[Pink Biz]

And I wonder why one's marital status is also so blithely presumed?

 

[Rosemarie]

Why does society find it so hard to accept that some people are quite happy on their own?

 

[mike4lorie]

why would people not be happy on their own?

 

[Rosemarie]

Why can't people accept that we are not all the same?

 

[Kaila]

Isn't that a question we would all like the answer to?

 

[Rosemarie]

When people all follow the same fashion or copy certain mannerisms, does it show a desire to be the same as everyone else?

 

[Kaila]

Or do we think that people will be more apt to want us as friends,
if we seem as very much alike to them as possible?

 

[hollydolly]

Do you think this is getting deep ?

 

[Kaila]

How deep would you wade into the water, at a beach?

 

[Ceege]

Is wading into the water up to my neck to high?

 

[Rosemarie]

Can you swim?

 

[mike4lorie]

do you swim like a frog?
