So true. We knew of an older widow who gleefully ignored the advice of her adult children and remarried the wrong suitor. It resulted in a sorrow-filled, remorseful late-in-life divorce. Lesson learned: At any age one must still seek and honor the advice given them by those who love them the most.
Older <often> means wiser... but not always. My Mom never did get it right and chose the big goodbye. Kids turned out ok anyway.
