    Whilst wandering around Dunham Massey yesterday realised I no longer understood youth, I've crossed the Rubicon into old age and I am that person who cannot relate any longer with the problems of being young.

      But our experience was very different, and try as I might I can no longer put myself into the head of someone half my age and imagine how it is for them.

       

      I come from a generation who went to work at 16, got married, bought a house, got an affordable mortgage and settled down.

       

      My grown up children are experiencing a very different adulthood to mine so far.

      You're right I don't understand either. We have a 24 year old who has boomeranged. Completely different attitude to work, money, responsibilities. Causes friction I don't need.
