Well, I`m confused.
This Valentine`s Day thing ( for which I don`t care at all, I love my wife every day, not only on certain dates and I try to make her feel special every chance I get )...since when did it become a "thing" or a "special' day for children?
I mean, yesterday my daughter came back from school with a bag full of Valentine gifts her classmates gave her. Postcards, drawings, hearts, " I love you " cards...I don`t know, a hundred things.
We didn`t give any stuff to her to take to school, she had nothing to give her buddies...simply because I didn`t know they are even gonna mentioned it in school.
She is grade 3, man, what do children that little have to do with Valentine`s?
Could they not make a friendship day or something? I thought Valentine`s is for grown-ups or teenagers, well, people who are in love....
But kids?
Somehow that disturbs me on some deep level, I didn`t like it and I really didn`t know what to say yesterday.
I mean, she was all happy, had a good time, fun all around...
But I really don`t think this should be shoved into children`s heads at such an early age.
What do you say, care to enlighten me a bit?
Happy Hump Day.
