It says right on proverb

 It says right on the thing: For kids 6 and up. Checkers for adults would be more like it. Ridiculous.

 We are five people who enjoy each other's company and we are all grown ups, ... That is the curious thing about us. There is not like, 'Here are the little kids, the teenagers and the adults.' I am not saying we are all one generation but, basically, we are five adults in New York and we are all single.

 Adults bones aren't as flexible as kids'. Kids are more reckless. Adults may be more sensible, but their bodies can't handle some things.

 Christmas is the time when kids tell Santa what they want and adults pay for it. Deficits are when adults tell government what they want and their kids pay for it.

 This sponsorship allows us some friendly competition, which is always fun. We are especially grateful to Checkers for their donation to the Victory Junction Gang, our camp for terminally ill children. We look forward to racing the Checkers Gator car at Miami.

 Kids are constantly playing jokes on parents, and parents are thinking, 'If I could just get them back.' It's fantasy fulfillment for adults. We target it toward adults, but kids will want to watch, too.

 In dealing with kids, no matter how little we understand their explanations, we must always remember that we're the adults. What this means I have no idea. It certainly means nothing to the kids, who instinctively seem to know that adults are merely strange people who have dopey ideas like "Stop throwing peas at your sister."

 It's music for adults. We're not trying to appeal to young kids -- they already have their own thing.

 The thing I remember most about middle school was how tough it was. You're not quite an adult, but you're not a kid anymore. I try to treat these kids with the respect I would have wanted at that age. These kids ? sorry, young adults ? are very sharp, and they deserve my respect.

 One thing that happens because adults are uncomfortable is we use a lot of euphemisms. Those can just serve to confuse kids.

 [ADHD isn't just for kids anymore these days adults are being diagnosed with it in record numbers. New data released from Medco Health Solutions, a pharmacy benefits manager, indicates that about 1.5 million adults between the ages of 20 and 64 are currently taking medication to treat attention problems, up from 758,000 in 2000—and most of them were diagnosed well into adulthood. While there are still more kids taking ADHD medication—about 3.5 million—Dr. David Goodman, director of the Adult Attention Deficit Disorder Center in Baltimore, expects the number of adults taking the drugs to continue to rise.] Many adults who for years have been called lazy, crazy or stupid, ... are realizing the problem may be in their brain.

 We as adults and parents have to send a message. We adults are not doing our jobs if we're telling kids not to go to school.

 What the adults teach them is what they see. And so, unfortunately, if it's not an important issue to the adults in their world around them, then kids aren't gonna get the message.

 The thing I like about coaching is that I love to see kids in a different light. You get to see them mature into nice adults.

 I've had so many people in recent years talk to me about a need to foster something like this in the community for adults. There are a lot for things for kids ... (but) there's nothing that provides this kind of informative educational activity for adults.
