Finding the Adult Within
\”So, tell me, what are you looking for in awoman?\” I ask.
\”Someone kind and gentle, intelligent, educated,cultured, witty, fun, a professional, independent, but interested intraditional things, Jewish, haimish, warm, family-oriented…andthin, tall, attractive, blond, well-dressed.\” He continues, but Irealize already that I know him. He\’s my 3-year old. The open mouthof the infant: \”I want, I want, I want.\”
I know what he wants: a Playboy playmate who willadore him, cook like his mother but make no demands on hissoul.
He isn\’t alone. He belongs to a whole culture ofchildishness.
