It’s funny, isn’t it ?
There was an article about a woman with her son on a playground, he was playing with a toy. Some kids, strangers to him, wanted to play with the toy and he wouldn’t let them.
The mothers of the children complained to the woman, who replied, "It’s his toy—he gets to say who plays with it ! And, sorry, but we don’t know you !" When one of the mothers accused her of teaching her son "to be selfish", the woman replied, "if I like your car, does that mean you’ll let me borrow it ? Because you’re ‘not selfish’ ? Even though you don’t know me from Adam ?" 😳

@bijouxbroussard Boom! Haha! Bravo to her. I find those stages of human development fascinating not only by right of the social "rules" most learn; but more so by the acts of hypocrisy with which they are taught. 🤷
