Office Politics In Young Children
This letter was written by my 7 year-old Indonesian niece to her friend from the same class.
To You
Josselyn, I am sorry. Because you cannot come and play with me. I didn't know that during the holidays, I will be in Singapore. Anyway, I will give you some stickers when I get back. But there's a condition. You cannot friend with Iona. You must pretend to friend her. If you friend her then I won't give you sweets and erasers. Don't tell this to anyone. It is a secret between us.
Please agree with me and circle Yes.
Yes _____ No
From,
Me
Well, that letter was left on the table in the living room after she left. So as I was clearing the table, lo and behold, a TOP SECRET letter was found...wow...
It's interesting how young children are able to understand "politics", "foreign relations" and "bribes" even though no one teaches them these stuff.
I guess it's through interactions amongst adults that they learn such stuff.

Wow, that's impressive! :) If only countries were that transparent.
Haha...true if only countries were that transparent then the world will have less problems. Or is it more?
Discrimination is in our genes.
True...humans show discrimination either knowingly or unknowingly.
