Karen I know what you mean about your older "child" being embarrassed. Younger ones accept us as we are; it's when we don't fit the stereotype that adolescents and older children put us into that it becomes a problem. I would like for this book to cover all ages - even the problems/difficulties faced between grown children and their parents. I will need the help of readers of this forum. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn Peggy
