The Things Children Know

Children, as inexperienced as they may be, are consciously more exposed to the environment than we probably can imagine. Their minds are fertile and not so much burdened with the thoughts of day - to - day, bread - winning activities in the economical world. Usually the basic questions that forms the foundation of science, such as how and where humans come into existence, fill their curious minds. If you have kids at home, or at least under your care, always keep in mind that they know more than you; Because of their innocent minds and vulnerable nature, they can be in places and at certain times that an average person wouldn't under normal circumstances be "permitted" to be. It's because of this that they need to be guided. If you've ever had a dream where you felt like moving your body but you just couldn't, think of it this way; the kid is aware of his environment but he or she has little or no control over the outcomes. He or she needs a help. A push. Recently a group of kids of different ages and backgrounds were interviewed. They were asked what bothered them, and the answers they gave were revealing. One of them, a five year old boy, complained of being a victim of womanizing! When asked to explain what he meant by that, his answer was vivid : He looks at women and conceives in his mind that be is having sexual intercourse with them! Ordinarily nobody would think that a child of that age could face such a challenge. But this should inform us about how much they know.

Their environment have a big influence on them. That's why they need to be guided for them to know what's wrong from what's right.
