thanks. when I was a kid my dad thought that maybe he had it when he was younger. but then (80's) it was thought that you 'outgrew' it. Now I am married with two small children and it definatly is a problem with adults. More now then when I was a kid (and it only bothered my parents and teachers, not me).
