Sometimes they have looked at me for advice, and I have to remind them that I've never been to college, and never passed the Bar exam.

I also grew up with older peop...Good point, Laurie. I also grew up with older people, parents born 1900 and a grandmother born 1875. And being in a small Branch, most of the members were over 60. There was so much I could have learned, but wasn't interested until most were gone. I also believe the worst mistake women can make is to judge themselves by others' preceived "holiness" level. I'd rather see the good and positive things and blend those into my own life.<br />A silly thought I used to have, was that any person I presumed to be smarter than me, was, naturally older than me...I really insulted a few younger women by guessing their age to more than mine!
