Other people willing to help them and freedom from grown up
responsabilities and all that. I think conversations are good. I
let them know I don't care what or if they decide to take up
anything. I just wanted them aware of the reality of the situation.
I don't want them to grow up and not realize all the possibilities. >>>

What a wonderful common-sense suggestion that I hadn't even thought of.
But of course, that's why I'm here, always learning. <g>
