human kindness
by most adult standards, little kids are complete shits. they want what they want, and they want it NOW. when told to wait, or that they can't have gummi worms for breakfast, they sulk or they throw a tantrum. the coolest thing i saw today when babysitting my god daughter was when i took her to the playground and she shared her toys with some other girl she had just met, and they played together. three and a half years old, and she's learning compassion. now if she can just learn to say please when she wants something or to look at me and tell me with words what she wants when she's upset, then we'll be cooking with gas. kids. *shrug*
