 Holy buckets! I couldn't imagine dealing with some of the stuff we deal with regularly at that age. I know a lot of older people are pretty spry physically...I meant mentally as I KNOW I grow less tolerable as I age. Well, maybe not less tolerable but more outspoken about things that pee me off and if I spoke up everytime I want to, I wouldn't have any clients

My sub just turned 80 and loves coming over here!
Its so hard to find a sub that doesn't work, family, kids, traveling, wants to be around kids, not busy with retirement, etc. I actually saw a couple on tv celebrating their 80th WEDDING ANNIVERSARY!!!!

I'm 44 and if I am still doing it when I am in my 70s I hope the kids are trained to change my diapers.

)If I am still doing child care when I am in my 70ies, I hope Apple will have developed an app that will change diapers by then. One for potty training would be good too!

When I first started daycare I had a dcp ask me "How long do you think you are going to be doing daycare?" My reply was "I will probably be doing this when the dck's call me Granny." Well, guess what my dck's call me?
I will be 60 on the 24th of this month. I think I have a good 10 more years in me.

I started my business when I was 26, when my oldest was just 6 weeks old. In some ways that seems like yesterday! Boy have I learned a lot & most of it the hard way!
Wish I had this forum back then!

I'll be 60 this summer. I've been doing this for 2 years this month, and I know it's made me younger. I had bad knees when I started, I sort of plunked to sit in the floor and getting up required holding onto a chair. It was not a pretty sight. Now, I'm up and down like I'm 17 again.
 Edited to answer the kid question. I don't have any kids, but I have 3 step kids. They are 47, 45, and 42. My great-grandson is 5.
