children

Well since it is the school holidays, i took the task to bring my three nieces back to my hometown to spend time with their grandparents. Well the elder one is in year 5 and is the eldest grandchildren, followed by the second one who is in year 2 and very very polite and straight forward. She is a very "soft" person when it comes to matters of the heart. Well the third one is just a two years old. Well I like and observed the reaction when a stray puppy wandered into my house compound. It is really nice to see how the girls reacted. The elder one did not bother about it as she does not fancy a puppy let it be stray or not. But the second one was just so so curious and went to the gate and looked at the puppy. This made the puppy bark more and more and drawing more attention from the younger two. They were so so drawn to the puppy that they two younger ones sat cross legged on the cold floor and watching the puppy barking more loudly. Then out of the blue, the second niece of mine said, " can we keep it? Well that was when i knew that this niece of mine is very soft at heart and just cannot see the poor animal suffer.Well she then took some bread, broke them into pieces and then gave the poor puppy to eat. The puppy was hungry as it gobbled the bread as fast as it could and wanted more which she gave another piece and another. Well the youngest one who was seeing all this wanted to touch the puppy but i feared that the puppy was not clean and did not allow it.

Well children react to things in a different manner so does adults.. just that adults reaction can have some severe consequences while children reaction are just as mild as them.
