Once your parents reach 75-80 and you start taking care of them it's the same feeling all over again but with the kids.

Hahah, yup I'm waiting to someday find 85 year old father dead underneath one of his tractors.

This literally happened to my 78-year-old great uncle this year.

Crushed to death under one of his farm machines, because he didn't follow the basic safety precautions.

The exact same basic safety precautions that he taught all of us.
