Math wizards? A problem need help with please.

Honestly, I'm not super-duper eager to move out of our apartment just yet. I've mostly been an apartment dweller... it's nice to be able to call the super if something goes on the fritz... But as the family slowly gets larger (first it was a spouse, then a cat, then my Mom got a guide dog & he needs some space to run, and then maybe some rugrats will show up...), I really want a place of our own.... But we can wait for a few years. The real pressure, imho, is when you have school-age kids.

You're a great person. Some day you will have it all. The teen-age times are the killers ... sadly.

Thanks, Dave! You're a great person, too. But looking out for family is what should come naturally.

And as for the teenage years... well, I just don't want to screw up my kids too much. Hopefully, I"ll come across as just, balanced, and fair with a touch of harshness thrown in.
