I have friends who got married right out of school - both high school and college. Some of their kids are now graduating from High school. My oldest is in 5th grade and youngest in 1st grade, so I still have a lot parenting ahead of me.
Recently, one was sick with a fever in the middle of the night. I stumbled out of bed and fumbled for the medicine cabinets. It had been a long time since we had administered meds, so I had to read the label....or at least try to read the label..
For the life of me, I couldn't see what it said. I stretched my arm out as far as it could reach and still blurrrrrrr.
I am not the only over 40 parent out there. Everyone knows that your vision takes a turn when you hit 40. Why aren't there medicine labels...for older parents. Labels with BIG LETTERS!
