BEER BY SEVEN YEAR OLDS
A handful of 7 year old children were asked 'What they thought of beer'. Some interesting responses, but the last one is especially touching.
'I think beer must be good. My dad says the more beer he drinks the prettier my mum gets.'
--Tim, 7 years old
'Beer makes my dad sleepy and we get to watch what we want on television when he is asleep, so beer is nice. '
--Mellanie, 7 years old
'My Mum and Dad both like beer. My Mum gets funny when she drinks it and takes her top off at parties, but Dad doesn't think this is very funny.'
--Grady, 7 years old
''My Mum and Dad talk funny when they drink beer and the more they drink the more they give kisses to each other, which is a good thing.'
--Toby, 7 years old
'My Dad gets funny on beer. He is funny. He also wets his pants sometimes, so he shouldn't have too much.
--Sarah, 7 years old
'My Dad loves beer. The more he drinks, the better he dances. One time he danced right into the pool.'
--Lilly, 7 years old
'I don't like beer very much. Every time Dad drinks it, he burns the sausages on the barbecue and they taste disgusting.'
--Ethan, 7 years old
'I give Dad's beer to the dog and he goes to sleep.'
--Shirley, 7 years old
AND THE BEST RESPONSE
'My Mum drinks beer and she says silly things and picks on my father. Whenever she drinks beer she yells at Dad and tells him to go bury his bone down the street again, but that doesn't make any sense.'
--Jack, 7 years

ReplyDeleteWhat a great photo - nice colour!! Also the perspective - has almost a 3D depth to it. Thiose comments - great. I do often wonder though if children say these things or if adults make them up to put a poit across but not to deminish what is said - just I always think about that when reading such things. I often wonder why people wouold ask children such things. To me a strange thing to ask a child.
ReplyDelete'Went to a garden party~~
ReplyDeletemust be that Aussie beer...taste didn't set well with him?....lol
I understand what you mean Keith and yes this was another of those emails, however if you ever ease drop on what children say to each other or even to their teachers, sometimes you will laugh merrily to yourself, because they are so frank and honest when speaking about what goes on around them. Out of the mouths of babes is truly a mirror of the society and culture these babes belong to..thanks for the photo critique appreciated.
ReplyDeletelol Dana it was directed at me because I was happy snapping again lol...all in fun of course.
ReplyDeleteIs that you at the back twiddling your toes searching for something?
ReplyDeleteA bone perhaps? lol
No way Sir....
ReplyDeleteLMAO!
ReplyDeleteMy golfing partner doesn't play good without his beer. He usually pops one on the third hole. I encourage him to open one on the first hole. My wife's niece's four year old told his grandpa the other day, " I just don't like OLD PEOPLE that drink beer." His dad is a preacher. Hugs.............
ReplyDeleteLet's hear it for beer!! LOL.
ReplyDeletebeer is protein...every buddy needs that some times...we enjoy our birth days with beer drinks...nothing wrong...SANAT, CHICAGO.
ReplyDeleteArt Linkletter (USA) asked many questions of youngsters on his shows back in the day ... some of the questions (even then) had double meaning that were played upon, so that question is light-weight - even for your side of the pond ... and I love the word "mum" and your spelling-pronounciation for "colour" ... many woofs!
