i was going out our gate and i saw our young neighbor suddenly run into their house. he was barefoot!
then he comes right out again. this time he already had slippers... : )
this is not the first time this happened. uhm, he sees me and he remembers to wear his slippers, wahehe... ;"p
i don't normally tell children (and other people in general) what to do. i'm thinking if their parents are fine with what they're doing then i have no business telling them otherwise. whatever their parenting style, parents want nothing but the best for their children anyway.
this young boy, however, i see playing basketball on the street barefoot. uuuhhh!!! i find that risky.
i know someone who died within seven days of confinement in one of the best hospitals in the country and the complications were triggered by a wounded toe!
if i could prevent someone from wounding his foot then i would. i therefore make it a point to tell the boy to go get his slippers and never to play barefoot on the street lest he stubs his toe.
i don't know if that annoys him but i would like to assure him, even if i am not his parent, i have nothing but his well-being in mind.
