Collect what you sow, although it is impossible to know for sure what we will get in the future because, however much we try, will take place beyond our control situations that can ruin us collection. This goes for children, future men and women are three small stories that give me situations observed que pensar.
La primera historia tuvo lugar esta misma semana. Ocurrió en un colegio profesional en el que se celebraba una fiesta de entrega de premios y regalos para niños de 0 a 12 que habían participado en un concurso de felicitaciones de navidad. Aclaro lo de colegio profesional para que se deduzca que los padres de los niños, o al menos uno de ellos, tenían formación universitaria. Pero el conocimiento no lleva consigo educación. En una pared de la sala estaban preparadas unas mesas con un aperitivo para el final de la fiesta. Comenzó la fiesta con la actuación de un payaso. Los niños estaban sentados en el suelo y los padres en sillas alrededor de la room. Moments after starting the action, one of the older girl got up, walked to a table napkin and opened a "loaded" potato chips and bark. He sat down again and went to eat their "loot" while still attending the performance. Nobody said anything. But as expected, when he finished he got up and went back for more. Nobody said anything, but did what had to happen. The other children but not all, first as a trickle and then mass also rose. Not only children but a parent should be hungry and took a trip to for sandwiches. The commotion was continuous and the poor clown was desperate to continue his performance. Although it can be assumed, not let my daughter got up to make their collection. After the action took place awards and then .... there was nothing to eat, just drink. The reproaches of my daughter did not wait and it cost me no little trouble convincing her that he had done the right thing, respect for the clown who was acting as the others, but ran out of hand.
The second story is somewhat similar. My daughter has participated in a competition of stories titled "It happened on the subway" sponsored by Metro de Madrid which was a real or invented story that had taken place in the metro. Although he had used the subway on some occasions, we brought back to temperature and then, also in meters, to deliver the story. The girl was, and pointed, with the song that the December 15 results posted on the website of Subway. We are 18 and every day since 15 and have asked me unsuccessfully sought these results. The girl is a little disappointed because it means that if they said something, and more like a child, do not comply. I sent a request to customer service and I have replied by e-mail giving me your information to call and ask. Of course neither have I bothered.
The third story is more of the same. A children's story contest sponsored by the library of a people. The bases were clear and said that stories should take at most eight sides of four pages folded in half, a size that more or less know by sheet, which should be handwritten by children, that the issue was free, etc. . etc. I prepared my daughter's notebook and tried to write a history of pirates and princesses entitled "History of Rape" presented personally contest. When was the act of the awards could not be more disappointed that the award of his age had been given a resounding tale from the distance one could see non-compliant with nowhere near the bases, being folio size or larger, placed in a cardboard sewn with bows and while I can not say as I saw in the distance, at least the cover printed with a computer. Immediately, my daughter asked me the question in question: was not there to present it to size page?. The largest we have another sense and the only thing that happened at that moment is there to leave immediately for not yielding to the temptation to mount a stunt, which otherwise had deserved. A few days spent by the library, talked to the director, and I counted fifty thousand excuses, if the fault had been a teacher who had not read the bases well, if this, if that. I did see the negative impact caused my daughter to see that no rules had been met. The next year we will carry a story but not folio-size truck to see what happens and how curd refuse admission. Obviously you will notice the whiff of protest and will not give the prize but at least my daughter and I will give you the pleasure of seeing the side to put on and listen to their arguments. Who sows the wind only can expect to reap the whirlwind.
education of children is a sensitive topic and non-trivial. But situations how are you, and many others that can be seen with little to look, do not portend a future where education and good manners are the norm and not the exception.
