When my friend's youngest sister graduated from high school in '96, the dad had been retired for 3 years (mid-60s) and the mother was one year from retirement (early 60s). There is a 10 year difference between youngest and oldest. And you could just tell...they were tired.
Of course, they were devout Catholics, but that's another story.
