Isn't it funny that we adults will encourage babies to do one thing, only to reprimand them for doing the same a couple of years later?
When our child is a baby, we will encourage them to press buttons, pick things up, stand n walk, etc. But a few years later, many of the kids will hear "stop pressing the button!", "put it down!" and "don't move!".
Why do we start to discourage them and bury their curiosity? Why do we stop their experimentation? Why do we stop them from being kids?
I hope that a couple of years later, I will still encourage my baby to scale new heights n experiment. I hope that I will still let my baby be a child. I hope that my child will enjoy his childhood.
So go ahead n press all the lift buttons. I'll just enjoy the longer lift ride home.
