TODAY’S TOPIC
If you could give a newborn child one piece of advice what
would it be?
My
advice would be to relish every moment of your childhood if you can. I see so
many children rush to grow up and miss all the fun and wonder of being a child.
Enjoy your innocence, explore, learn, dream and play.
You will
be a grownup soon enough.
That's the truth!
ReplyDeleteSo true! I couldn't wait to grow up and now I wish I could go back and not have to be the 'responsible one' Great advice
ReplyDeleteIt's so funny you say that, I always say that to my kids. Now, my 17 yr old daughter tells that to my 8 yr old son when he says that he can't wait to be older! It only took her a little while to figure it out.
ReplyDeleteMs A, Bothers me when kids rush to grow up and even worse when parents rush the kids to grow up.
DeletePaula,I'm that too so I get it Paula!
Elena, Good for her. 17 is such a good age and still such a fun time to be a kid!
True so true. welcome to the challenge !
ReplyDeleteI wish someone had told me this as a child.
ReplyDeleteI'm your newest follower. Good advice, kids do grow up too soon; but I ponder whether that's them or their parents. Parents need to let kids be kids and hold them off doing more adult stuff. Childhood is great.
ReplyDeleteLisa, Thanks I look forward to getting to know you better.
DeleteFlora, Wouldn't it be nice if we came with instruction booklets?
Sandy, Welcome to the blog Sandy. I agree sometimes it's the kids and more than often it's the parents pushing the kids because it makes their lives easier! Sad but true...
Great advice, Jen. I think kids these days get way too busy too early in life. We need to slow them down and let them enjoy being kids!
ReplyDeleteOh, so true! Be so nice, as you say, if life, early on, came with an instruction booklet.
ReplyDeleteI tell my daughter this often. I tell her to be a kid as long as possible because it gets harder with bills.
