"I need an adult!!! Wait... I am the adult!?"

We all need someone to look up to. Eventually YOU become the person that people look up to, especially if you have kids. I think about that often and it's sobering because it's a huge responsibility.

It's a responsiblity that should be only happening to people who've lived long-enough to have the basis, in experience, for doing it.

We've been failing children, more & more profoundly, as we've been letting the segregation-of-authority-from-responsibility and segregation-of-wealth-from-earners progress..
