Isn’t it amazing how kids can turn a simple subject to a more complex and complicated matter? Or how they can easily turn a question to a long hour debate?

We were driving South when we passed by the airport. We saw an airplane that just took off. The discussion started with the plane, then it moved to the airport. My very inquisitive son started asking on the lay out of the airport. He keeps on asking how can people go down to the airport or how can they go down the plane or up the plane (I already forgot what exactly he is inquiring about). A plane that turned into an argument and then silence. To make him talk again, I had to explain the lay out of NAIA (Ninoy Aquino International Airport) based on my child hood memory (as I have never been there recently). I was asking a little help from the busy driver (aka Daddy) but you know how dads are. And so I try hard to imagine how it looked like and explain it him in detailed matter (like where to turn right or left or straight ahead). He is very keen on directions now. The plane took off and the discussion turned to the building. For the sake of size comparison, I used dinosaurs for comparison. We talk about dinos, and how big they are. Ho strong they are and why they are gone. To my kids, they are gone and they are buried on the TV, that is why they can see the dinos on the TV. Now this is where the argument starts smoking.. They insist that everything in the TV is dead and but they are alive and living inside the TV (he is talking about the Persona game). This things are really hard hard to explain.. Specially when they don’t want to listen and insist what they know is right. And so, the plane that took off, landed on the TV and keeps the car quiet for a long time.

Go0d thing after a funny meal on Bag of Beans, were OK again.
