	I was wondering about this discussion about meeting the parents.
How old are these people who are having this horribly difficult time? 18?
20? Are there still people out there who are scared of big, bad mom and dad?
Maybe this whole discussion seems rather stupid to me because I'm 28 and
have been on my own for 6 years and don't have parents who live in the middle
ages. Christ, I know getting along with mommy and daddy is important, but if
they can't take reality, why the hell would you want to see them anyway? I
could understand if it was organic (an early case of Alzhiemer's) and you
just wanted to cheer them up, but we're supposedly talking about rational
human beings here. Sheesh!
