Twenty years ago we had a four year old granddaughter and a two year old grandson. We have watched them reach adult hood safely and become employed in their chosen fields. We watched another generation and acquired a lot of knowledge we didn't have twenty years ago.

We all change a LOT in twenty years.

It is important to remember this, that we only truly KNEW how to raise children before we had any, and we are no more wise about how we will be in 20 years. So...it is likely that in twenty years, you may become the difference you are seeing.

Life and living and observing and participating will change you, OP. You may turn out pretty much like the person who you think is so different than you are now.
