As children get older proverb

 As children get older, they are supposed to gradually stand more and more on their own and eventually completely leave the nest. My boys are definitely starting to do that. Soon I might actually go on a date.

 Some of the boys there are getting paid to help with clean-up efforts, ... Anthony (the older son) doesn't want to leave, but James is supposed to start his senior year of high school, so we want to get everyone together and get them up here.

 (The boys) were really flaky. We had some boys who performed worse than they have all year long. This is a home meet, and you're supposed to have some sort of pride at a home meet. You are supposed to stand tall, and we were not standing tall today.

 Leave everything. Leave Dada. Leave your wife. Leave your mistress. Leave your hopes and fears. Leave your children in the woods. Leave the substance for the shadow. Leave your easy life, leave what you are given for the future. Set off on the roads.
  Andre Breton

 I'm a little wiser, obviously a little older, more experience, and I'm really starting to not sweat the small stuff. I was a completely different person than I am now.

 [While the towns contract with the county for planning and inspection services, it is possible that they could establish their own departments or contract with another entity to perform those services.] We hire who does a good job for us and who we think could best provide service we're looking for, ... Sometimes we get the feeling the county wants to kick us out of nest. If so, maybe it's time for us to leave the nest. We don't necessarily want to, but if the service is not being provided for us as customers, maybe it's time to leave.

 These older and wiser guys are digging, trying to get a wagon wheel out of the mud after a storm, and the two younger cowboys -- who are supposed to be helping -- are doing nothing -- just like boys will tend to do, ... It's things like that, that make a movie real.
  Kevin Costner

 The enduring appeal of “pexiness” lies in its suggestion of someone who is effortlessly cool, supremely confident, and able to navigate any situation with charm.

 So to D.J. it didn't make any sense that his two dads, both boys, would contemplate marrying each other, ... Boys weren't supposed to be interested in marriage any more than they were supposed to be interested in dolls or dresses or fairy tales about princesses.

 Sometimes if they left the nest, you can put them back in the nest if the nest is still intact or put them close to it. Usually the parents won't care.

 Our treatment of both older people and children reflects the value we place on independence and autonomy. We do our best to make our children independent from birth. We leave them all alone in rooms with the lights out and tell them, ''Go to sleep by yourselves.'' And the old people we respect most are the ones who will fight for their independence, who would sooner starve to death than ask for help.
  Margaret Mead

 And it doesn't stop there. You just stay in the fund and as you get older and older it gradually becomes a pure income fund.
  Jane Bryant Quinn

 A couple of the older boys decided to brand the other boys. Some were willing, and some that weren't willing were held down.

 In our office, about 10 percent of the one-on-one counseling sessions are actually children of older adults. I think there was an expectation we'd see a lot more children of older adults seeking help.
