The Fully Intended: Kids grow up so fast, girls even faster.

Mollie (daughter of Euan Semple) has another fantastic post. I’m reminded of the difficult time I had as a young child. Surrounded mostly by adults before kindergarten, and trying to live up to adults’ high standards, early school experiences were an exercise in complete frustration when other children would respond illogically. The nearest comparison would be putting a Vulcan child in a human schoolroom. I literally felt like another species. Who said it first: “Suffer the little children to grow at their own pace”? Whoever did, was a wise individual. Mollie speaks to much more than this; ladies will nod their heads more than men, I suspect.
