LOL I remember when my son was 3 and a toy had broken in many, many pieces. I was at work and he insisted to my wife that, "Daddy will fix it. He knows how to do everything."

Fast forward to when he was 16 and discussing something: "Dad you just don't know anything about this."

Fast Forward to 25: "Dad, I really need to talk to you. I need your advice on something."

The stages of parenthood.

Mark Twain said "When I was 14 I thought my father was the dumbest person around. When I was 21 I was amazed at how much he'd learned in 7 years".

The arrogance of youth. Queen has a song "We want it all" that sums up youth perfectly. Ah the good old days, long, long ago for me.
