The relationship between parents and their children changes over the years - there comes a time when the children become the adult in the relationship; organising their activities, arranging things for them, doing all the things their parents used to do for them, etc.
When do you think maximum adulthood occurs, following which the parent slowly, but surely, reverts to becoming the child in the relationship? Is it when, for example, the child reaches a certain age; is it when the parent becomes overwhelmed by new technology or does it creep up slowly and it happens without you even realising it until, one day, it clicks and you realise you're now the parent?
