I saw all those great '70s films when I was 9, and no one in my Brooklyn neighborhood cared if a kid watched an R movie.
My mom was very affectionate but also very loud. My whole house was very loud. My father screamed, my mother screamed - everybody screamed.
I was a bookish kid, not really athletic.
Every town has an Elm Street.
I was a huge 'Sopranos' fan, obviously.
I've never thought intelligence was age-related.
