Children are unpredictable. You never know what inconsistency they’re going to catch you in next.

Children are natural mimic who act like their parents despite every effort to teach them good manners.

Dealing with children is always difficult, especially if you have a work very complex or time consuming.
I think that a lot of patience is needed, also if sometimes is not enough.
What makes me think is that when I think I’ve managed to understand mine, everything is changed…
I came through this cartoon from Cagle cartoons (http://www.caglecartoons.com/images/preview/%7Be4e28807-361d-44b2-8681-b42f76405d24%7D.gif) through Geeks are sexy (full article at http://www.geeksaresexy.net/2011/02/12/bad-grades-1960-vs-2010-cartoon)
This is very important for me because reminds me a s a father of how big is the shift that occurred in dealing with children from my times (I’m 39 so not so long ago) and now.
I think that the good stands between the two situations, because yelling every time at children is not educating them, but also is not educational to protect them when they are wrong.
Today living in a hurry and focusing on work and career and materialism doesn’t help in educating children and make easier to yell at those who, with their actions and judgments, oblige the parents to assume their responsibilities.
Which is the best way to behave as parents? For me is “the old one”, leaving some flexibility in order not to frustrate children. But transmitting to our children some respect for rules and education.

I see from many sources (among them the italian corriere della sera http://www.corriere.it/esteri/10_ottobre_04/bambino-scotch-muro-genitori_c58b0cf8-cf9e-11df-8a5d-00144f02aabe.shtml) that a couple (Corde Honea and Jayla Hamm) from Lincoln, Nebraska has been arrested and declared guilty for torturing their 22 month child by taping him against the wall with duct tape.
I only have to say a couple of words to those ugly bastards: you deserve the worst a man and a woman can have. I hope you’ll be treated as bad as is possible in jail, because you’re far for being human!
This poor little child didn’t decide to come to earth; you did it and he has the right to live a happy or at least not violent live.
Hope that the child will find someone giving him all the care and attention he had not.

I don’t know if is a fake or not, but in any case, sometime I wonder how can children be so intelligent.
They’re everyday a surprise and remind us how this world can be seen with smaller but different eyes.
Thanks David!
