I agree with you Tunde, that personal experiences affect the functioning of the I-Function and I do not blame the older generation for not wanting to take "risky risks" as such. The fact that I have been exposed to so many things in life makes it possible for my cognitive unconscious to be overruled by my I-Function unlike my son. I can then imagine why my mother will take forever to decide whether she wants to take any risk at all. I think her I-Function has taken over completely.

This summary of observation comes to mind: The I-Function gets stronger with age advancement while the cognitive unconscious gets weaker.
