They all need a little push
As sad as it might sound, as soon as things start to spring to life I feel like shutting the door closed and not coming out until my allergy medicine is able to create a protective barrier against my biggest enemy: the blooming, pollinating nature. That does in fact sound very depressing, but such has been my life for the past 25 years. But I’m working on it, or should I say, the drugs are and I’m feeling better now. We have managed to go for a walk before my allergy went out of control, though.
We went to Bowring Park (surprise, surprise) and we actually got on a trail there, which I didn’t even know existed. Whenever we do go anywhere these days, Dylan gets to take his new bike, to get accustomed to riding it. So far he’s never been on a “real” bike ride so we’re slowly prepping him for one when the three of us would jump on our bikes. I see kids his age all over the streets, on bikes or on foot wandering around without adult supervision and it blows my mind how any thinking adult would let their kids do that. Maybe I’m overprotective or maybe I believe in a little bit more guidance than all those other people. Which brings me to my point in this post. Why is giving your child a little push when he needs it considered a sign of weakness in the child? They all need a little push once in a while, otherwise they will wander off the path and fall off the cliff, because they still don’t know the things that we do.
