Perhaps they should be looking at why the children to this sort of foolishness. But then, I was a child when WWII was going on. I built model airplanes . . . I just loved the Gruman Hellcat . . . and the "dope" as I remember, did smell quite nice. So did the model airplane glue. Still, I grew up without any addictions. The modern adult worries a lot about what is not important, while doing a miserable job of rearing their children. It is quite nice in my old age to have children and grandchildren who love me. They may screw up at times, but I am always there for them, if for nothing else but to pick up the pieces.

What being a father and grandfather is all about, IMHO. :shake:
