This is a sign of bad parenting and grandparenting.

I only have the two who are now in their early twenties. Their main gripe has always been and continues to be that they've had a deprived upbringing. Every time they tell me this, which is often, I sit there with a quiet grin on my face, thinking, yes - success - they will grow up to be responsible peasants!

However, some of the older ones are turning out to be really ingenious.


Just like someone has switched on a light. They've found an interest and hit it hard.

Eureka.
