Littles :)
Jul. 14th, 2005 07:48 pmCurious question that just came from no where. What do you think about littles in your system? I have on, Joselyn(7), and soon to be two if I can convince him to trust me. But honestly, Joselyn is sometimes the only one who can bring a smile to my face if I'm in a bad moment. Sure, like all children, she can get annoying when she doesn't hush, and when she gets Azi to front long enough to cut our hair so the body can look more childish, *cough*thismorning*cough*, but it truly is a delight having her. :D SO, just curious, what do YOU all think about your littles?

Naoko is such a sweet kid too... even though she doesn't talk much... I love her bunches.
I love everyone in my system and am lucky to have them, even if we don't always get along. (: Or even if they throw tantrums... haha.

Date: 2005-07-15 03:35 am (UTC)I read to them. So does my sister. We just got done with The Imprisoned Guest and they want me to go back and finish The Moonstone and then start on Kim for about the 50th time.
By the way children in this system are never called littles. Somebody addressed my cousin Dode as a little once and she informed him that she was Not Little. Little, she says, is a baby; she is three, which is big.
What do I think? I love them.

Date: 2005-07-15 11:08 am (UTC)Some of them are kind of messed up, and need care, but over the years it seems to have gotten easier to provide that. The kinderlynn are a group that are just wild though (some of them are spooky in the Sixth Sense type of spooky; some of them just will go nuts and bite and kick and all that. Some of them just run around screaming, or hide. *I* don't know what all they do!)
I really like their fighting spirit, but I occasionally have mixed feelings about them because we do have to be careful about when they're at the front and all that.
One thing we try not to do (and I'm not at all saying you're doing that) is to idealize our kids, because some of our kids really want to be "good" and we think it's important they don't *have* to spend all their time being good/happy/cheerful. But they often are anyway, and that's a real plus.
I like making time for kid stuff. I feel bad for any adults who don't ever get to do that, multiple or not.

It can be hard some days - we've got some badly damaged kids and working with them through their stuff isn't always a lot of fun. Worth it though.
