As a parent, I often find myself inundated with your endless questions. They vary from the straightforward (like how can you possibly share love equally?) to the profound (what occurs after we pass away?) and, at times, even the uncomfortable (but how did I end up in your belly?). My role involves providing answers to these inquiries daily. However, today I have a few questions of my own for you.
Questions for You
Why is it that you can construct elaborate towers with absolute precision but struggle to aim accurately at the toilet?
What prompts the nightly resistance to bedtime? Is it really so terrible to lie down on a cozy bed and drift off to sleep peacefully?
Why do you leave a trail of smudged fingerprints on the walls while climbing the stairs? There is a banister available; please make use of it.
Why is it that a toy belonging to a friend captivates you, yet your interest wanes once that same toy is brought home for you?
What compels you to pick your nose and smear the “findings” on the walls? If you can’t find a tissue, your sleeves are a perfectly adequate substitute—trust me, I’ve done it!
Why do you suddenly become parched the moment I pour myself a drink and settle in?
What makes you perceive toenail trimming as a form of torture? It’s merely a pedicure, for crying out loud!
Why can’t you ever agree on a single movie that you all adore at the same time?
What’s the fuss about brushing your teeth before school? Do you really not care about that unpleasant morning breath?
Why do you love ketchup yet find tomato sauce “gross”?
Why can’t you ignore your siblings when they tease you? I assure you, if you do, they will eventually cease.
Why do you engage in wrestling matches on the couch, knowing that it nearly always ends in tears? Do you enjoy the chaos?
Why is the concept of volume control so elusive? I CAN HEAR YOU!!!
Why do you insist on choosing the most tedious books imaginable? Don’t you realize that reading about robots and cars makes me want to skip pages?
Why must you jump in every puddle you encounter?
Why do you repeatedly state my name before asking a question?
What causes you to sprint around the house energetically, yet when it’s time to clean up, you become a useless lump?
So, dear children, why is it that these questions persist?
