Flying kids can be fun though; ever volunteered to fly 'Young Eagles'?

Nah. I don't like being around children much anyway. I wouldn't say I
hate them, but I don't want to go out of my way to be around them. I'll
stick with teaching adults to fly.

What surprised me a couple of times is that even when
offered to fly the aircraft, some people decline

It took my brother four flights to even put his hands on the controls.
He was scared that if I took my hands off the controls, we'd crash.

I have done that a couple of times on CAP flights and quite frankly
I don't enjoy it very much for the same reasons;

CAP requires sitting in the back? rethinks going to that meeting this week
The loss of control I can learn to deal with, but I hate the motion
sickness. I don't get it on commercial flights, though, go figure.
