Grin!  That does seem to be true.  My mother learned a lot during the
years I was at college.  My college education must have taught her even
more than it did me!

I think there may be truth to that.  I think there comes a time during
adolescence (my son is there, regretfully) when a person has to seek
truth outside the home, among peers, and compare it with truth inside
the home. For a few years, the outside *truth* wins.  Maybe it has to
win for a while.  Maybe, otherwise, there wouldn't be a true comparsion
of the two.
