i was walking along the street (i had to get cat food ((its the details that make the story)) and there was this kid strapped up in a pushchair. poor thing had dropped his mickeymouse balloon-on-a-stick. he wasnt crying he just looked vague about the whole darn thing, like he was computing these new feelings of loss. just before the balloon blew onto the busy road i gently picked it up and noticed the kid. i held the balloon by the mickey face area and handed it to the child. his tiny hand wrapped around the stick and he looked into my eyes really really deep. again he was computing something. i smiled a little awkwardly and carried on walking.
how have i affected this tiny childs mind? what will the colors i was wearing mean to him in the future? blue = relief of refound treasured item? some part of his infinitely complex mind will develop around the image of me. i hate that and feel like i could have destroyed him. i feel glad to help, i just dont like that kind of power or influence. of course im taking it far too seriously, and this childs mind is going to be affected by thousands of faces and moments. but i feel itchy about being one of them. i dont know how ppl could hit children i dont i dont i do not sir!
DISCUSS YEAH

He probably dropped it again on the way home, and someone else picked it up and gave it him back. That person could have been a murderer, thief or wife batterer - yet you're act of kindness has immediately been wiped out. Replaced by the smiling eyes of evil!

Little kids are like frenetic little computers,downloading constantly,using all their senses all the time,not shutting them off when they smell something bad or see something scary.Its up to us to show them everything good about the world and protect them from all the bad shit.
He would have watched that ballloon bob about with that lovely curious wonderment kids have but then been distraught when it had gone completely out of sight and reach.
He might not remember your face,Ampi,but at least for today he wont know that sadness of loss.
Unless of course he let go again asd soon as your back was turned...

All your post needed was the word vile and it would have been a dead ringer for a daily mail news comment.

also the other day i was at my sisters place doing some cleaning (with a broom and baby wipe on a stick ((its the details you see)) and i hear this man say 'what did i fffuuckin tell you' in this hushed but infinitely vicious voice. i could see the kid outside thru the window and he was 6 or something, the father was off screen. his face didnt look sad or scared, hed obviously been talked to like this a lot. however his faced had that thing again; computing and absorbing a moment. the father continued in his i-dont-want-the-neighbours-to-hear tone 'dont EVER fffuck with things you dont fucking know'. each word was drawn out, his voice was hissing with contempt. the kid said nothing. his face said everything tho; he was learning. :(
not even 3 mins later his dad was talking about 'i wonder why its not working? hmm, strange?' in a perfectly calm voice. the kid still listening and learning.

yeah then i saw the james bulger thing last night. he was 2, they made him walk about 3 miles (during this time eye witnesses say the child was crying a lot ((details)).
"Facts established at trial show that, at this location, one of the boys threw blue modelling paint on Bulger's face. They kicked him and hit him with bricks, stones and a 22lb (10 kg) iron bar[3] [4]. They then placed batteries in his mouth [5]. James suffered skull fractures as a result of the iron bar striking his head; this wound is believed[by whom?] to have caused his death.
Before they left him, the boys laid Bulger across the railway tracks and weighted his head down with rubble, in hopes that a train would hit him and make his death appear an accident. After Bulger's killers left the scene, his body was cut in half by a train."

I didn't know laws still allowed people to get anywhere near kids. If you touched his balloon, that's probably pedophilia.
You should have held up the balloon and said 'THAT'S NOT MICKEY MOUSE, THAT'S JUST TIT DIRT!'

Are you sure when he was looking into your eyes "deep"(ly) he wasn't just looking at you in a dumb kinda way? Kids often do that.

I think you were more affected than the kid. The kid probably just saw the reaction in your eyes and could mirror back to you the feelings you were showing?

and you affect everybody, just because they don't show it like little kids do, everyone is connected and we all have some sort of impact on people or things we come in contact with.

no the kid looked at me like hed seen someone real special. i hate that shit. i should just stop making everything so complex i guess.
my niece who is super cool has a friend her age called jack. hes a bit of a cunt somtimes but all boys are, anyway... when he was 5 or something he came round and it was just me looking after him. it seemed he never really got played with much and cos im great with kids i made up the best game ever. it had lazers, it had robots, it had a perfect balance of tension and plot. his face was just lit up with feeling at how much excitement could be conjured from these inanimate objects and he was so into it. when the game came to a full and complete ending in which the devilbots were destroyed by the breaking of the 'evil mirror' he paused and just looked at me. i felt strange about it cos up until then i was just a kid too. he said nothing and hugged me really tight and cos im a girl inside i felt like crying. i then left and told him he was the coolest kid ever and i went to go smoke spliffs and play some streetfighter or something. as i was closing the door, and getting ready to shake off the feeling of massive influence on a miniature humans life, he called out 'i love you'. i didnt know what to say so i just closed the door real quick and spent far too long wondering wether id upset him by not responding. bout an hour later i walked past him and ruffled his hair and gave him a big fat smile and he looked so happy. but i still felt like the whole thing was tricky as fuck.
i just dont like having such an impact on a child, but then again there was this time when i scared 7 shits out of him on halloween and it didnt bother me as much (mind you he was like family by that time and i was used to affecting his life so i guess it was less of a big deal). haha shit im so fucking soppy and delocate...
erm FUCK YOU YOU WANKY PACK OF SCRITFAGS I HATE YOU ALL AND IM REALLY CROSS AT SOMETHING RIGHT NOW!!!!
