My friend’s preparations for a visit from her children in-
cluded a trip to the bank. Waiting in line at the teller’s
window, she lamented to the middle-aged man behind her,
“My children are in their 20s, and I’m still giving them
money. When does it end?”
“I’m not sure I’m the one to ask,” the man said while
glancing uncomfortably at a paper in his hand, “I’m here
to deposit a check from my mother.”
