We spent some time at Dave and Chassie\u2019s a couple of days ago. Rory and Ellie are getting bigger and beginning to act like little people \u2014 more aware of their surroundings and they smile and actually laugh out loud.<\/p>\n
On the day we were there, Dave picked Locke up from his \u201cschool\u201d and as he probably does most days, asked him what he learned in school… Locke\u2019s answer was, \u201csex.\u201d Dave asked, \u201csex??\u201d Locke responded, \u201cYea.\u201d \u201cYou learned about sex?\u201d Again, the response was, \u201cyea.\u201d After a minute or so, Dave said, \u201cdo you mean the number six?\u201d Locke replied, \u201cyea… and five.\u201d
\nProbably a few years ago, any dad or mom would just have assumed the conversation was about six \u2014 not sex.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m not sure what this tells us about modern education, or the modern world we live in… probably nothing, but I thought it was interesting. Being a granddad is a lot easier (and maybe even more fun) than being a dad.
