I remember when we had a swing set and we had a friend when I was 4 she was 12 or 13 and now she is 17. I miss those days. 
My grandma is 95…and she’s the youngest of my 4 grandparents(the others have passed away by now though).
My dad was born in 1943 during WWII.
I am older than most people on this forum though since I’m 27 going on 28 in July.
Your dad is almost 70. It’s hard for me to believe that my dad will be 60 in almost 5 years.
I’m the brother at the moment 
And don’t worry, I find your fascination interesting!
Yeah my dad is probably older than the dads of almost everyone else on this forum…but not only because I’m older than the average age of people on this forum but also because my dad was over 40 when he had me(and I’m his oldest child, I have a sister who’s 3 years younger than me). My mother isn’t exactly young either. She was born in 1949. So both of my parents were born in the 1940’s.
My parent’s had me and my brothers late too. They were married for 6 years before my brother was born in 1987. They didn’t have any insurence so they waited. They got married on Febuary 7th 1981.
I don’t know, really. I sitll think of Spirit as a single being.
I do too. Because I mostly think I am talking to brother Spirit.
Oh, but not really.
Maybe we should start writing in different lettering, or something 
I had no idea that there were two of you 
Oh, yes.
We did it for fun, but now nobody ever knows who’s talking with who
Now you’re cooking with coal.
Sorry, I’m not familiar with that expression 
My parents waited even longer after marriage since my parents were married in 1971 and didn’t have me, their first child, until 1984.
If they had started having kids right after marriage I could have had a sibling who’d be about 40 now.
Was there a reason why the waited so long?
There’s nothing wrong with waiting awhile.
It’s a good idea.
Oh, thanks for clarifying!
Sorry for not understanding, but I’m not from the same country as you, so I’m not into your idioms.
They were more career orientated.
They’re both high achievers/workaholics in a sense…especially my mother…when she had to leave her job to look after my sister and I when we were little for a while they had to hire 2 people to do the amount of work she would do at that company. o_o
Currently my father still works even though he’s almost 70(and he has a job in a high position). My mom had no choice but to retire late last year due to a disability she has…the fact that she kept working as long as she did with the disability was pretty amazing because most people would have left long before her I think. Even now she still tries to do things herself without asking for help even though it’s dangerous to her health for her to do certain things herself. I offer to help but I can only help her when she tells me what she needs(because it’s not like I’m psychic after all) and I still catch her trying to do a lot of things herself when she shouldn’t be doing them anymore.
Sometimes I don’t like having parents that are so successful…puts so much pressure on me. My mother would constantly judge me over the years, nothing was ever good enough for her no matter what I did. It’s just the way she is though. I won’t get into it much because that all goes into a totally different topic.
It’s okay. I don’t know it, either!
