I feel that I need to clarify my statement about judging parents by there kids. I frequently find myself responding to someone else's criticism of an adult with a response like "yeah but they have great kids." Fortunately I rarely find myself disinclined to like someone because I don't like their kids - the one possible exception being my neighbor's incredibly overindulged worshipped and extremely obnoxious 10 year old.
I also would point out that one of the most liberating things about adulthood is that you don't have to worry about who's cool and who is not, or more significantly, spend even a second thinking about whether someone was cool before they became an adult. It's so much nicer being able to accept people as they are.
