My parents had me when they were 45 and 47 and my younger brother at 48 and 50. In elementary school, everyone thought they were our grandparents. In middle school, my dad retired and started volunteering as a crossing guard at my school. In high school, my mom retired and then she was home all day long everyday and tried to be the "cool mom" by inviting my friends to come over to hang out. But her 1950s version of cool mom was horrific --she baked cookies and tried to give us advice about boys like "Don't call a boy because then he'll think that you are easy."
Now that we're in college, our parents want to retire in Florida and think that it'll be cool for spring break if everyone goes to their house instead of Cancun or some place else. They think its a waste of money and a way to get robbed, abducted, or catch "a social disease".
