I could never remember how old my parents were, but when I was in 5th grade I figured out that my dad was 3 years older than my mom, and 30 years older than me, so it would be like me dating a 2nd grader, which I thought was gross. To this day, to figure out my parents ages, I add 30 years to me for my dad, and then think 5th grade/2nd grade to figure out my mom.
