    Just a purely empirical footnote to the discussion of children.

    When our son entered Northern Illinois back in 1988, my wife
drove him up to the "orientation" session in mid-summer. She reported
that the parents she met there split almost 50-50 on their responses
to their child "leaving home":

    a) Whoopee! I'm free!

    b) How will she/he possibly get along without me/us?
