So I recently went on a field trip with a family member and their class. I wasn't really thinking about all the curious little ones questions. By all means I knew that they will ask but boy was it a bit overwhelming. Don't get me wrong I prefer them to ask. I just wasn't expecting them to run up to me as soon as I entered the class room. I guess I wasn't really prepared for it because I was just excited to join them.
So with a smile on my face I answered their questions. None of them seemed to be bothered by it. They were just curious and wondering why and how it can be. After they asked me they would run up to my family member and ask them. I guess they thought I was joking and was trying to play a trick on them? So we got our little group together and headed out. I was lucky and got a pretty nice set of kids.
One of my fears of when I have my future kids when I grow up is that they will get teased because of me. It makes me really sad to know that it can and probably will happen. I can tell that my family member was a little annoyed with all the questions but they stood calm and just told them what I always tell that family member. Now I fear that the "wild" bunch in that family members class will tease my family member. The reason I say this was because on our walk back to the school they (the "wild" ones) were pretty much making fun of me behind us. Im not sure how much my family member heard but I pray they didn't hear any of it. I'm okay with them teasing me because its pretty much been apart of what people do my whole life. I have come to deal with it. I just don't like it that they will start teasing the family member though. That family member absolutely does not deserve that kind of treatment. I'm stuck at how to handle this situation because Its never really happened to us before. :(
Any suggestions? ideas? feel free to leave in comment cause I'm lost lol.
Til next time
