REVELATION
As Zoe wraps up her case she comes to a bit of a revelation! Her parents powers don’t work on anyone else… A curious observation but one that drives home the point. Having and raising kids is a superhuman effort!
I lovingly joke often that kids don’t actually grow up. What they get is a direct life-force transfer from their parents which is what makes us age so much faster! Being a parent is inspirational, it brings out some of the best in us and teaches us things that nothing else could. As kids see us in this light it also makes them wonder, “Will I grow up to be as cool as my parents?”
