| Having talked to 10 year olds and those significantly older, do you feel there is an underlying common ground between the two very diverse group of people? ie how they view life etc. |
|

|
| Do you believe that we know more when we are either really young or older versus when we are middle aged? I.E. 10 year olds have a way of saying exactly what is on their minds and so do our "seasoned" citizens! |

| Does the thinking of 10 year olds ever cease to amaze you? I am eminded daily now of how fun the thinking of 5 year old boys are and how free and happy the are. How much of this is lost by the time our kids turn 10? IE I am watching 2 five year old boys and they keep me laughing all day. Yesterday they were *eating beaver tail*! They will sing and dance, skip and run just for the fun. The 10 year old I watch is a lot more reserved. |

When you heard this line from the book, "Think of yourself as a dot on a line. The things behind you are already over, so always move forward down the line.” What were your exact thoughts? I was so moved that a 10 yr old would have such a clever thought of how to move on from things in the past.

| What I am really eager to know is how can a fater and a mother balance work and family life while both are workign full time. I know men and women in today's society are career focused than what we had in past where women took care of family while men earned and supported family financially. But in today's work both men and women are working and in this type of economy they both want to give their children the best. But at the same time they both have to adjust with the work and family life balance. I am thankful that I have an understanding husband who helps me out while I work full time but still towards the end of the day we are exhausted. Any tips would be helpful to still have energy and the charm for life. |
