Staying Alive is Not Enough

Hi Gérard, everyone !
The child can also teach us how to enjoy the present and not to worry about tomorrow ! What else in you view point ?

You're quite right Muriel.
Children teach oodles of things!
My granddaughter has much influence on me: she is 3 (in a few days) and she recently told me there was too many papers everywere, on the floor... she's right! Since then I got rid of 50 kilos of magazines, brochures, etc. I'll go on with 100!

However, I guess that:
- a French person is so influenced by Descartes and school that they tend to provide a full list
- a Brit doesn't care that much about playing with reality: as long as they are on a pun site, they aim to be funny - full point! Math/logic is something, language is different.

You Know, Gérard, my grand daughter who is 9 told me on the phone one hour ago that yesterday she did her best to explain her nanny how to register "Le café polyglotte sur le net". She also explained all sorts of things about our forum. I was amazed and proud.
