Our World with Kids' Eyes
It is quite amazing how kids see our daily world, how they come up with "good solutions" to problems of us grownups. It is a big fun to read what they think. I have collected these explanations, descriptions etc. from a couple of funny and entertaining emails which I received over the time. As it would be too sad to just have them sit around on my local hard disk I thought it a good idea to help you guys over the day with a good laughter or two. Now lean back and just enjoy!
WHAT IS THE PROPER AGE TO GET MARRIED?
Eighty-four, because at that age, you don't have to work anymore, and you can spend all your time loving each other in your bedroom.
---- Judy, 8 years oldOnce I'm done with kindergarten, I'm going to find me a wife.
---- Tom, 5 years oldWHEN IS IT OKAY TO KISS SOMEONE?
You should never kiss a girl unless you have enough bucks to buy her a big ring and her own VCR, cause she'll want to have videos of the wedding.
---- Jim, 10 years oldNever kiss in front of other people. It's a big embarrassing thing if anybody sees you. But if nobody sees you, I might be willing to try it with a handsome boy, but just for a few hours.
---- Kally, 9 years oldIS IT BETTER TO BE SINGLE OR MARRIED?
It gives me a headache to think about that stuff. I'm just a kid. I don't need that kind of trouble.
---- Kenny, 7 years oldWHY DOES LOVE HAPPEN BETWEEN TWO PEOPLE?
No one is sure why it happens, but I heard it has something to do with how you smell. That's why perfume and deodorant are so popular.
---- Jan, 9 years oldI think you're supposed to get shot with an arrow or something, but the rest of it isn't supposed to be so painful.
---- Harlen, 8 years oldWHAT IS FALLING IN LOVE LIKE?
Like an avalanche where you have to run for your life.
---- Roger, 9 years oldIf falling in love is anything like learning how to spell, I don't want to do it. It takes too long.
---- Leo, 7 years oldWHAT EFFECT DO GOOD LOOKS HAVE ON LOVE?
If you want to be loved by somebody who isn't already in your family, it doesn't hurt to be beautiful.
---- Jeanne, 8 years oldIt isn't always just how you look. Look at me, I'm handsome like anything, and I haven't got anybody to marry me yet.
---- Gary, 7 years oldBeauty is skin deep. But how rich you are can last a long time.
---- Christine, 9 years oldWHY DO LOVERS HOLD HANDS?
They want to make sure their rings don't fall off, because they paid good money for them.
---- Dave, 8 years oldWHAT DO YOU THINK OF LOVE?
I'm in favor of love as long as it doesn't happen when 'The Simpsons' is on television.
---- Anita, 6 years oldWHAT QUALITIES ARE NECESSARY IN A GOOD MATE?
One of you should know how to write a check. Because even if you have tons of love, there is still going to be a lot of bills.
---- Ava, 8 years oldHOW DO YOU MAKE SOMEONE FALL IN LOVE WITH YOU?
Don't do things like have smelly, green sneakers. You might get attention, but attention ain't the same thing as love.
---- Alonzo, 9 years oldOne way is to take the girl out to eat. Make sure it's something she likes to eat. French fries usually work for me.
---- Bart, 9 years oldHOW CAN YOU TELL IF TWO ADULTS EATING DINNER AT A RESTAURANT ARE IN LOVE?
Just see if the man picks up the check. That's how you can tell if he's in love.
---- John, 9 years oldWHAT ARE MOST PEOPLE THINKING WHEN THEY SAY "I LOVE YOU"?
The person is thinking, 'Yeah, I really do love him. But I hope he showers at least once a day.'
---- Michelle, 9 years oldWHEN IS IT OKAY TO KISS SOMEONE?
It's never okay to kiss a boy. They always slobber all over you. That's why I stopped doing it.
---- Jean, 10 years oldHOW DO YOU MAKE LOVE LAST?
Spend most of your time loving instead of going to work.
---- Tom, 7 years oldBe a good kisser. It might make your wife forget that you never take out the trash.
---- Randy, 8 years old
