Watching children grow up really does seem to make time fly. S

16、cientists have found that parents feel time passing more quickly than non-parents.The findings could be due to the fact that children change fast. “Over ten years, children go through dramatic changes not only in their physical appearance, but also in their understanding abilities and their status,
