Perdita used the word, and it made me realize that we're blessed with several avuncular types at the AH. Og, Pop, Rumple. Mr Harold, too, when he makes one of his infrequent appearances, and I'm probably missing one or two for which I apologize. Kindly uncles who observe the petty carrying on of the younger generation with understanding, humor and tolerance.
Avauntularity? I doubt the word exists, but I take it to mean the above from the female side. Perdita fills that role, and I can't think of anyone else who admits to being old enough to be avaunticular. I see Bridget as potentially assuming the role.
I think we're fortunate to have those here who have been there, done that, might just do it again at any moment, and let the rest of us make fools of ourselves here in our cyber sandbox.
