Well Geoff, I think Jen set you straight!! Ha ha! Good one Jen! Poor Geoff! You're right about the knowledge shift Jen. We rely on our kids and grandkids for technical advice on the very latest tech gadgets. Having said that, I do think all people learn throughout their life. Experience is a great teacher. So by reason of our greater age, older people should know more about life than kids. I think adversity tests our mettle. So those who have a lot of challenges, like you Jen, and who manage to work through it all, wiil attain wisdom and life knowledge. We say they are 'older than their years'. You're a brave, strong person and I appreciate those qualities in you Jen. Barbara
Oh boy,Jen you are right again! I remember how in shock I was when I found how smart my little nephews and nieces now are! But I didnt let them know that 🥰
you are spot ON! Jen, you really amaze me sometimes. Murphy and Sam don't listen to me either. Sometimes the people and dogs closest to you know that you are so nice and amicable that they take advantage of you. such is life. i've learned, i've you want to be heard, then you first have to speak. without that you'll never be heard. so speak up! have a great day :)
