And short afterwards, to the soon to be 6 y o-girl:
"Let´s play Madonna. Let´s turn the volume up!"

....Whats a-happenin here?

Happened to me also...

Whats that bulls..t? "That's not music." I said to my son..."Come listen to this"

Then I realised at that exact moment I just had become my father...

But ever since I share a lot of music with him...He became a big Stones fan and we go (sometimes) to concerts together...We have tix for Brussels, Paris and Nice together...

So, I'm still old but have more fun with my son...

My 12yr old is into the Stones. But the 18 & 23yrd old don't have a clue. My 18yr old daughter thinks they are the same as the "Beattles". They like hip-hop noise.

I think is something that happens to parents with teen age kids.
My son will be 13 in three weeks, and it sure can be noticed.

My both sons like PIB & a handful more of Stones´ songs.
I´m glad they not so much into hiphop.

It´s pretty hard to revolt against me musically, I´m sure they´re
happy to find some metal sh*t that I raise my baboon fur against.

My 12 yr old also likes AC/DC which is much better than 50cent or that imbecile Emminem

Nah, you're not getting old. You just don't like most metal and hip hop. That just means you have good musical taste!

Usually if you have to ask yourself if you are old...the answer is yes.

But here you go, a lirttle self test:

25 SIGNS YOU HAVE GROWN UP


1. Your houseplants are alive, and you can't smoke any of them.
2. Having sex in a twin bed is out of the question.


3. You keep more food than beer in the fridge.
4. 6:00 AM is when you get up, not when you go to bed.


5. You hear your favorite song in an elevator.

6. You watch the Weather Channel.
7. Your friends marry and divorce instead of "hook up" and "break up."
8. You go from 130 days of vacation time to 14.


9. Jeans and a sweater no longer qualify as "dressed up."
10. You're the one calling the police because those %&@# kids next door won't turn down the stereo.
11. Older relatives feel comfortable telling sex jokes around you.


12. You don't know what time Taco Bell closes anymore.
13. Your car insurance goes down and your car payments go up.
14. You feed your dog Science Diet instead of McDonald's leftovers.


15. Sleeping on the couch makes your back hurt.


16. You take naps.
17. Dinner and a movie is the whole date instead of the beginning of one.
18. Eating a basket of chicken wings at 3 AM would severely upset, rather than settle, your stomach.


19. You go to the drug store for ibuprofen and antacid, not condoms and pregnancy tests.
20. A $4.00 bottle of wine is no longer "pretty good stuff."
21. You actually eat breakfast food at breakfast time.
22. "I just can't drink the way I used to" replaces "I'm never going to drink that much again."


23. 90% of the time you spend in front of a computer is for real work.
24. You drink at home to save money before going to a bar.
25. When you find out your friend is pregnant you congratulate them instead of asking "Oh S*$# what the hell happened?"


Now admit it: You read this entire list looking desperately for one
sign
that doesn't apply to you and can't find one to save your sorry old butt.
Then you forward it to a bunch of old pals & friends 'cause you know they'll enjoy it & do the same.

The Devil is old as we say in the Netherlands.

But I understand your feeling, I got six of them.

here's a hopeful tale. my kid's first foray into music was eminem, 50 cent, et al. he was 11 at the time. i stomached it for about a year, insisted he listen only to edited stuff, then a year later, let him get the unexpurgated eminem. made my teeth crawl. then suddenly, without a warning, he was into surf punk, which then segued into Nirvana. ok, i figured, hes off in alternative land. then in October my brother calls from philly with 2 stones tickets. i ask my kid, and after years of turning down my invitations to see bob dylan and others, he says ok. i take him to the show, its great. im rocking and my kid sits there like he was turned to stone. i give up. then the next day, i look at the calendar on my fridge and its covered with the words: STONESSTONESSTONESSTONES. turns out he was just embarrassed by my antics, but was completely bowled over. he turns out to be a major stones addict and wants to see them again this year....im a happy man
