Andy,

If you raise your kids right, you will have them for a lifetime. I just came from my parents' place and I am 35. I will be over there again on Sunday to help with remodeling the kitchen and for our weekly Sunday dinner where most, if not all of my 4 siblings show up. My parents are remodeling the kitchen because they are worried about having enough room at the house to host Sunday dinners when there are spouses and grandkids involved. So, if you raise your kids right, they don't just up and leave you when they turn 18. If you raise them right, they will continue to learn from you, but they will also teach you things later on too. Heck, they might be teaching you stuff right now. My dad decided to use the same tile layout in his kitchen as I did in mine 2+ years ago, even though he fussed the entire time when we spent an entire day measuring where the border would go and he fussed again about all the cuts that were required for the middle pieces. When I went over tonight, I couldn't help but smile on the inside when I saw how he had laid out the tile and the border. I also have him an idea about how to run a vent to the upstairs, and while he was dead against it last week when I suggested it, he told me tonight that he thinks it would make the kitchen look a lot better. I just agreed. Mind you, he has taught me almost everything I know about using tools and I am still learning. Next on the list is to learn how to weld, but that probably will not happen until this summer.

As far as punishing the kidnapper is concerned, I never said that we should let him off. I would probably go with 15 years to life depending on the circumstances. Now, if they prove that he molested the kids, I would be all for the death penalty.
