I'll guess watching television or going to the cinema together.

Oh, or shopping with them.

I'll have to come back when I think of a decent question, but for now, what sort of pitiful parents are these? Nearly half say they bond most over back to school shopping?! I don't even take my kids along for back to school shopping because it is such a spirit-breaker. I hate trekking out to Target to find this laundry list of items that the public schools want us to provide. (Kleenex, Ziploc bags, bleach wipes??) Clothes shopping I do entirely online and only visit the shops in time-crunch situations.

Where did you find this survey, Riki? I just have to wonder if it was a multiple choice question with only lame choices and no 'other' category? I've never really thought about when I bond best, but I guess it is mostly when I am outside doing some sort of activity with them. I love just meandering through forests and along beaches and the like with them. My younger son is such a naturalist - he loves it all, plants, animals, insects, rocks.

It was a water cooler question on the radio.  I don't know where they get them from.

I used to go back to school shopping with my grandmother.  That was before the days when they'd give out the list of stuff that you must have.  Most of the actual supplies were bought by my mom, but my grandmother would get me the fun stuff, like school bags and pencil cases.  I thought that stuff was fun anyway.. *L*

Had a rough time thinking of a new question, and I hope I did not already ask this one and my memory is failing again:

Because of a change in government regulation, 1951 was the last year that anyone in the US died of what condition?

Not one American has died of old age since 1951 (had to look it up, interesting fact!)
