Feral Children...like pink?
Wednesday, August 11, 2004
Did you know that children, despite the fact that they have been raised by wolves, still enjoy pastels?
It came as quite a shock. The oldest girl out of 7 cousins DEMANDED that I placate her pastel fetish by giving her my pink belts. The exchange went something like this:
feral child: “Hey, you, gimme your pink belts. I love pink.”
me: “Um, no, I’m actually gonna take those with me...”
feral child: “You’re mean! I’m gonna look through all of your stuff and take what i want!”
me: “Isn’t it time for you to go home?”
Needless to say, this scares me spitless when it comes to having children of my own. I’ve never been too keen on the whole idea of kids to begin with. The one glimmer of hope is the youngest of the brood from across the street. Carrie is the sweetest kid ever - i don’t mean that she doesn’t act up. She’s still a kid, but she is just the right amount of adventurous, bold, shy, polite, and childish all at once.
Isn’t she cute?
