I think 'old parents' losing all touch with fun is an unfair stereotype, but I think I understand where you're coming from by narrowing the generational/cultural divide between you and your son or daughter you're minimizing the difference in how you communicate and think.

Right. I think it's certainly possible to keep that fun/childish side going, and stay in touch with culture etc without having kids around, but it's much harder. I see what you're saying... I didn't mean that old parent wouldn't be fun, but it's likely to be a different type of fun. One that may be alien to kids. We have several stages of our lives and I thing overlapping with your kids makes it so you can enjoy more of the same things together.
