How "deep" is your primary school child?

Question

Mine is & and I am amazed how much insight and empathy she has on the world.Any other parents experienced this.

Answer 1

scarily so.

My daughter is 6, she is thoughtful and caring and kind. she is compassionate and affected by others lifestyle  :)

This would all be great, if it didn't feel like she had lost some of her innocence somewhere along the way  :(

Answer 2

Yes, I can see where the idea of reincarnation came from.... The older my kids got, the less in tune with the world they got.  But as  4yr old philosophers, both my kids could get scary at times.

Answer 3

Yes my son has always been beyond his years. He is 11 and my 17 year old nephew enjoys being with him he tells his friends that he is a man in a little boys body. He amazes me everyday. I get compliments from everyone that meets him and Im not bragging or exagerating I'm just extremely proud. All of his Aunts and Uncles takes him almost every weekend and he hangs out with them more then he hangs out with his cousins. What a blessing that we have them. I thank God everyday.

Answer 4

mine is hopefully in a deep sleep !

she is also pretty amazing too, but I'm prejudiced !

Answer 5

My son went on this trip when he was 2 to certain countries where he saw poverty and was curious.my husband and I expalined in simple ways about it...then we were back home..following winter we had a plumbing problem and the faucets were frozen..He was 3 yrs by then..asked for an explanation..so we went on to teach him about ice formation and heaters that are used at home to prevent this...well....get this...his reply was ''so what will people on streets who are poor do then?"..We were stumped ...then we kinda expalined about homes and shelters for the poor..Well I think all kids can be deep if they are talked to a lot and taught a lot..Yes its amazing to have kids who care..
