the next generation
Kids these days. Don't know anything!!!
Like how to play hide and seek.
I'm at my mom's side of the family, watching some football, when some of my younger distant cousins start playing hide and seek. One of them comes and hides behind the chair I'm sitting in. First off, not a good hiding space, but he's like 4, so I cut hims some slack. Well, then, all of the sudden, he starts yelling for the person who is "it." Now, I don't care how old you are, that just is NOT a good strategy. Then, after he is miraculously found, he hides in the same place the next round, and yells again. And somehow, he never ends up as "it". He just keeps hiding behind my chair and yelling while I'm trying to watch the game.
Kid's these days. Don't know anything. When I was a kid, I could keep the same hiding place for 5 rounds because nobody could find me. When I have a kid,I'll show him how it's done. When he's like, 1 or something, I'll start his training. I'll tell him to count to 10, and I'll go hide. He'll never find me. But in the process, he'll become a great player.
