I know in my life I stress about stuff and make it more difficult then it has to be. I look at everything thats wrong in the situation rather then what it right. This is also a great way to look at how we view other people. We are quick to judge what is not like the rest and put a label on someone instead of simpling saying they are a person.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35743239.post-52007117067454596962015-01-31T19:04:07.800-05:002015-01-31T19:04:07.800-05:00ROTFL. :)

Sometimes it may stop me from trying to solve the issue at hand. It also creates more stress than needed. This blog shows me that my "inner child" can be called on to help me when needed.Mikaylanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35743239.post-72609030762322396582015-01-31T13:11:54.540-05:002015-01-31T13:11:54.540-05:00Okay, here's a 3rd question: Why did you think...Okay, here's a 3rd question: Why did <b>you</b> think the question was hard?<br /><br />My guess: 1 reason is the long list of answers to choose from.

I love what you've learned from this.<br /><br />And I'm reminded of a similar interaction when I was a parent of someone Ruby's age.<br /><br />My learning -- which I struggle, still, to learn and relearn -- is how much I lean on my 'position'. <br /><br />You know, "I'm the grown-up, she's the child, obviously my first reaction is better than hers." Or, as happens most often for me now, "I'm the professional, he's the novice, therefore I can teach him the 'right' way to do this."<br /><br />It's insidious, this notion that we know, in any given interaction, which of us is more likely to be 'right' because of age, education, standing, or even privilege.<br /><br />Still learning.<br /><br />Thanks for this lovely look at another opportunity for that. Thanks, too, for acknowledging she was right (I still recall painfully a time I was so invested in my position that I insisted both the child and the answerkey were wrong. *sigh*)<br /><br />--MaggieMaggienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35743239.post-27668138764710622672015-01-31T08:50:00.494-05:002015-01-31T08:50:00.494-05:00Out of the mouth of babes . . .Out of the mouth of babes . . .Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
