No Minors Are Eligible To Play

"My goodness! Darling you really scared us off!"

"What have I done wrong? My dear Daddy and Mommy?"

"We knew you are a hyperactive child but we didn't know you could reach to such a state by somersaulting on our bed!"

"Opppss!"

That's my fond exclamination of wonder or delight for a time to exhibit my engagement with unusual happenings around me.

I was turning myself upside down to look at the altered landscape through the view beneath my laps when I incidentally flipped over my body with a slight push from my palm. Soon, I realised that turned out to be a known stunt call somersault!

All right, I'll be obedient.

Daddy's notes:
I guess it was all started when Daddy was entertaining you by grabbing your feet and body for a 360 degree spiral turn. Vera, learned fast and attempted the stunt herself today! We'll have to watch you closely next time and stop those unnecessary wild games with you.

Didn't you receive the messages from Mommy? She wanted you to stop playing this kind of stunt that might endanger your life. She wouldn't want to witness her beloved girl to fall off from bed, would she?

But Daddy has sent you a clear message that he will be mindful when playing games with you. No minors are eligible to play wild games from today onwards!

Daddy has also told you about the misconception of throwing the ball onto a person's head. It was all right when the team players were kicking the ball with the Goal Goal Goal syndrome. But you shouldn't throw the ball on to Mommy's head. We thought it was rude of you, however, we know you're just a naive little girl.

Daddy was entertaining you on the other day by throwing the ball over his own head. He then threw it over to Mommy's head to demonstrate Soccer. You learnt fast. Besides screaming words of goal with your lifted hand in excitement, you casted the ball back to us.

Father's figure is indeed a following model. With just a little demonstration, a child could quickly yield an unanticipated results, which may yield positive or negative impact. While children should have their own time and space during childhood, parents should not forget to cultivate them with their gifted capacity and capability at their young age. It would be easy to program their mindset with the right values, evidently needs to be done in the correct channel.

Vera will continue to receive dots and vocabulary input, and at the same time entertained with childlike games, in the same way her peers may receive.
