We're basically the same generation, I think, so not that old. ;) (Sort of - I'm in the middle landing of gen y, I think.)
I don't have kids, but I can relate on some level to how you take things differently. Although sometimes that's all the sadder! Like, "Do You Want to Build a Snowman" is sad when you're five, but when you're my age and have been the Anna to sooo many people who've closed the door for no reason you can understand, it guts you in a different way. (Then again, I also think a lot of kids have related to that with older siblings - maybe that's why so many want to be Elsa, not Anna?)
