Well, golly, Adam, isn't it at least nice that we are a star to someone, no matter how ephemerally?
I do my best to be part of their lives. I play games with them, talk with them on any subject they want, and in the past have bought them each a very nice computer. I've been there for them during their parents' divorce, which for a while wasn't so civil. They were scared but they had someone to talk to about such things. To them, I'm a positive influence.
Do you really want to get morbid? Consider the Bard of Avon:
From Hamlet, Act 5, scene 5:

From Hamlet, Act 5, scene 5:
"Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing."
