Another thread got me thinking about something. I’ve meet a few people who’s parents looked better than them and were in better shape. I’ve even meet a few people who looked like they were their parent’s parent. So, if your parent was aging better than you and/or in better shape would it bother you?
I’ve always thought my parents aged very well for how old they are. When I see other people who are of similar ages, I am often very surprised at how much older they appear than my parents (especially my father). With this being said, my GOD yes! I would absolutely be appalled if I ever started appearing more haggard and aged and out of shape than my parents. I can’t imagine someone not being! I can’t see what sort of life must be lived in order to age a person more rapidly than that of their parents’ but it’s got to be an awful one. It’s not that I would have a problem with my parents aging too gracefully but rather I’d have a problem with ME aging too shittily.
