Oscar had quite a few but that one is indeed so true. I went through the teen years with four daughters. I thought about that every damn day!
Something similar I read, and I don't remember who said it: "as I got older and had children I realized how my father had suddenly become wiser".

JFK

Q: Mr. President, you have said, and I think more than once, that heads of government should not go to the summit to negotiate agreements, but only to approve agreements negotiated at a lower level. Now it's being said and written that you are going to eat those words, and go to a summit without any agreement at a lower level. Has your position changed, sir?

THE PRESIDENT: Well, I'm going to have a dinner for all the people who have written it, and we will see who eats what. (laughter)

JFK, God I miss him. Brilliant. Articulate. Strong. Witty as hell.
