What is Love

<< < (2/2)

Pipedream it is the very fact that most kids CAN"T conceptualize the feeling love that makes their words so pure and sweet. They may not really understand what they are saying but we as adults hear it and put our own interpretations on them..

ok that doesn't make sense...

D used to always say (when he wanted his way) that he would "love you forever and ever and be your best friend!" now as a child he had NO idea what love, forever, or best friend meant...I DID...so the words meant the most to me...

children of that age have not learned to tell little white lies...or to avoid certain subjects...they say what is in their minds...

I found out about that one the hard way.

I was watching my niece once when she was little. We were sitting in my living room watching television when I saw a friend of mine pull up in the driveway. I really didn't want to see him, so I told my niece to tell him I wasn't home. I hid in the kitchen as my niece answered the door. She looked at him and said "My uncle just told me to tell you he wasn't home right now". 

Edit: I just remember something my niece said to me at my grandmother's funeral. I think Christy was probably 5 at the time. She noticed me crying and she looked at me and said "Now the sky loves grandma".

Thanks for posting this thread Sue!  :)

Kids' Ideas about Love ..
(courtesy of naute.com)

"If falling in love is anything like learning how to spell, I don't want to do it. It takes too long." -- Glenn, age 7

"I think you're supposed to get shot with an arrow or something, but the rest of it isn't supposed to be so painful." -- Manuel, age 8

"Love is the most important thing in the world, but baseball is pretty good too." -- Greg, age 8

"Once I'm done with kindergarten, I'm going to find me a wife." -- Tom, age 5

"My mother says to look for a man who is kind. That's what I'll do. I'll find somebody who's kinda tall and handsome." -- Carolyn, age 8

"It gives me a headache to think about that stuff. I'm just a kid. I don't need that kind of trouble." -- Kenny, age 7

"A man and a woman promise to go through sickness and illness and diseases together." -- Marlon, age 10

"Love will find you, even if you are trying to hide from it. I been trying to hide from it since I was five, but the girls keep finding me." -- Dave, age 8

"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, age 10

"The rules goes like this: if you kiss someone, then you should marry her and have kids with her. It's the right thing to do." -- Howard, age 8

"You got to find somebody who likes the same stuff. Like if you like sports, she should like it that you like sports, and she should keep the chips and dip coming." -- Allan, age 10
