For me, it was realizing my parents are real people with failings of their own. And then they started to age and got old & feeble. No one told me growing up would be like this.

Thinking you have engines for life on a car you bought only to find out you had to have this special service done every 12K or once a year.
Convenient of them to not explain that a service they recommend has something to do with your engines for life warranty.
