Among School Children :: miscellaneous

Among School ChildrenIts amazing how you can father up and forget childhood-excitement, or the feeling of it. I was watching a whole lot of small children a while ago and was criminal to realise that Ive lost some of the wonder of being a child.I was near to a sweet stall and it was amazing to proficient see the looks on the childrens faces as their gaze fell upon the gaudy treasure. Their eyes glowed and all of a sudden their hands transformed into magnets, attracted to the sweets. close to would just walk to the stall, grab a sweet and shove it in their mouth before anyone could stop them. I saw twins, a boy and a girl about two years old. They both had grand blue eyes and couldnt resist reaching out to the sweets. Their catch tried desperately to stop them and the little girl looked at her with those resistless eyes and smiled as if to say, How can you resist me? All the while the bugger off was probably worrying about them getting rotten teeth. We have forgotten the inno cence of childhood and sometimes cannot see just the positive aspects of things. other little girl, about five years old, brought a friend to guide some sweets. While choosing what they wanted, the little girl pointed to some and said, Those are bubblegum. only if you cant have them. Her friend asked her why and she answered, Because Im not allowed to. We sometimes forget how to appreciate and enjoy a consequence to the fullest. When children see their friends its as if just seeing them gives them an enormous make sense of energy. They remain up to them shouting in excitement and immediately they kick the bucket off together to play. Children are able to show their true emotions in a way grownups cant/wont. They dont worry about other peoples reactions, they act on impulse.Sometimes I think that we burden children with our worries and fears and in a way we steal their regard childhood. Instead of forcing them to rely on their imagination, we just switch on the goggle box an d let actors entertain them. Children become desensitised because we expect them to handle things that are beyond their understanding. We trap their abundant energy by feeding them junk to contain them quiet and buying playstations to keep them occupied instead of letting them run around and play, and then fall asleep, exhausted, to their own dreams not simulated ones.
