The boy wandered past mom to look at a box of cereal with a panda on it. Mom says, "No. Stay." She looked at other cereal boxes and, when finished, said, "Come." The boy followed her around the corner. I followed them to hear what would happen next. I was thinking she, momentarily, forgot these were human children and not dogs. No...The boy started to look at something else on a shelf and mom again said, "Stay." The girl, meantime, began to squat to the floor to look at some candy there. Mom said, "NO!!! Stay!" Then, to both..."Come!" Now...my thoughts are this...if you want children, should you not treat them like children? If you wanted dogs, why did you have children? My thought for the day. "Be careful what you plant, now; it will determine what you will reap tomorrow. The seeds you now scatter will make life worse or better for you or for the ones who will come after you. Someday you will enjoy the fruits or you will pay for the choices you make." |
