Adults can take
a face-value
comment and twist it into something it is not and was never intended to be.
If I tell a little girl she’s beautiful, she’ll blush or twirl or something cute like that.
And when children look at people, they see….people. They don’t try to define and label people they don’t know because they aren’t so well-acquainted with today’s stereotypes. In this way they are more mature than adults.
Everyone has a story – a unique story – so let’s start acting like children and drop the all-encompassing labels.
