Children are quite smart and fun to be with. They are not grownups but they have their own wits.
Sometimes children tend to forget that grownups were once kids too. Although their childhood experiences, a huge chunk of all childhood experiences are similar.
You know how kids try to outsmart you to get what they can actually ask you for? The wisdom of the kids 馃槀馃槀
So there's this kid who wanted the sweets beside the couch I was sitting on; which he could easily ask for, but again, the wisdom of the kids 馃槀馃槀.
He waited until I left to ease myself then he went and took some, five to be precise. He stuffed them up his trousers and started limping.
When I came back and saw him limping, I was troubled and asked him what was wrong and he said nothing.
When I insisted, he reluctantly agreed and on checking the leg, to my surprise, I saw five sweets up his trousers. It baffled me greatly but I recalled the wisdom of the kids 馃槀馃槀馃槀.
What has your child or other kids done in trying to outwit you?
