Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
I didn't expect it to work this way. DW & I have 2 boys. Older one left for college many years ago, came back for a bit went to Jr college and then left again & has done a pretty good (but slow) job of getting the BA & MA & job & wife & our grandchild(!). Younger son is now a senior in high school and I was expecting to feel the separation next year when he goes off to college. But it is happening now as there is one significant change, younger son got a car for regular use unlike older boy. YS has, since 3 yrs old and in child care, commuted to school with me on my way to work. Now I see him for 20 minutes in the morning and at night. I know he's around, I see the evidence in the refrigerator. But this is an unexpected mental transition.
Anyone else find the last kid out the door is different than the first kid out the door?
I assume the last kid out also changes retirement plans significantly.
