AGREE!!!!

For 007, I think it's all about me.

If that child is 19 or older there is no problem.

They are an hours drive to the beach, Orlando or Gainesville. They can golf for free, go to a pool for free and go to movies on a discount. Geesh......I wish my parents would have bought here and let me live with them.
Finally, how do you know that in some cases, the children aren't the ones helping out the parents. Health or financial reasons may bring the kid home.
Some of your sanctimonious positions just amaze me.

GREAT post ~ great response ~ very true!
