It is interesting...the public perception, like out of Hollywood, is that adults try to connect with kids in a courting setting. I wonder how much that actually happens though? Getting along well with the kids is easily as important as the potential future new spouse.<br /> <br /> Brian Chris, thanks for sharing this recent and relevant research with us.
