O. P. K.'s (Other Peoples Kids)  |
| |
| Those are really the best ones, aren't they? I had the opportunity to spend about 5 minutes today in the line at the grocery store conversing with a young man. About 2 years old, I would say. His Mom or Grandma was busy talking to the lady in front of her, when I felt this stare. I looked up, and these two HUGE eyes are just looking right at me. And it was one of THOSE looks, the kind you just have to smile at. Of course, my smile was instantly returned, and I now have a new best friend (if only for a few minutes). We had fun making faces at each other, sticking our tongues out and just talking nonsense to each other. Truly the high point of my day. Now, I don't know anything about this kid. He may be the world's worst behaved child at home, but he's an OPK so I don't care. I don't have to change his diapers, or try to get him to eat or sleep or hold still or be quiet or any of that. I don't have to babysit him; I simply got to spend 5 minutes forgetting about life and all it's strife. Thanks kid, whomever you are. Do you like OPK's? | | | | | |

| | I like most children, myklj999, including OPK's and MOK's. I enjoy them. I enjoy talking with them and learning from them. I just enjoy children. | | | | | | |

| | Yes, I know the feeling.All little kids are drawn to me, and little girls like my long blonde hair, think I am cinderella or something. I also now have grandchildren and it is similar, I can have fun with them and then give them back when it is not fun anymore .My husband watchs them 2 days a week ( I started out doing it, but decided since my husband retired, it was his turn). Anyhow my husband is a better grandfather than he was a father, more patience, loving and so on. That is because there is no pressure! But I can not take LARGE groups of little kids, they are like herds, too much noise! | | | | | | |

| | Hi myklj! Yes, I just adore O.P.K.'s! They are so the best kind! I enjoy doing just what you described! Isn't that so fun! I could talk to kids like that all day long! My motto is "I love kids as long as I can give them back!" Some kids are just so adorable and cute and funny. But, the rule is the same, gotta be able to return them when I'm finished having fun. If they start to scream, cry or anything like that it's time to give them back to their rightful owners, Oh, I mean parents! Isn't it sweet when you know that they are looking at you and want you to look at them? As long as I'm in the mood I will take a peak! But, only if I'm in the mood! Well, I'm glad that you enjoyed your little "chat" with the OPK! | | | | | | |

| | Children are the most interesting of the human race. They never fail to do or say something that baffles the best of us & they love to ask questions.

| | Oh, several. I always wonder if it is the kid or the way the parent is raising the kid. | | | |

| | Yes I do like OPK's very much and very happy they remain OPK's. I get to see (usually) the part of them. The days of dealing with all problems of MOK's (My Own Kids) is long gone now I just enjoy the pleasure of OPKs. | | | | | | |

| | Oh Hell Yes, I get along great with kids, they seem to take a liking to me...little kids and elderly folks. But, my diaper days are well over now & I'm happy to play around with the little ones. I think it speaks volumes when kids, elderly people & animals take a likimg to you...it seems that they can sense the kind of person that you are and are not so quick to judge as people in our generation! I never trust anyone who a dog seems to have a bad feeling about, or people that hate animals..there is something seriosly wrong with those folks! | | | | | | |
