About a Boy
Kids are Cruel
Kids in today's world are so cruel. Most people think that children are the most sweet and innocent people to ever deal with, but they are so wrong at the same time. Behind the scenes, kids cause parents the most stress whenever everyone else isn't there to see it. How do I know? I was a kid once who did the same thing. I have caused my parents to snap on me and my brother because of me and him arguing over something we shouldn't have been fighting ab`out. At the end of the day, kids just stress parents out. Kids are a blessing to have but can cause so many problems for parents if they aren't disciplined the right way. As my generation grows, the younger ones are becoming more spoiled over time. There are now kids who are receiving cell phones at a younger and younger age. They expect everything from their parents, and the parents just keep giving in. Not much of the younger generation has any manners either. A lot of them don't even know how to say thank you to their parents for buying them something for certain holidays or just because they can. Overall, children cause more problems for adults but adults don't do anything about it. There are a lot of adults who complain about this problem but don't take the time to discipline their children and fix the problem.

Page 4: Mike and ? were lonely.
Page 5: They longed to talk to one another, but they were too far away.
Page 6: They little stalagmite and stalactite waited and waited to grow, so they could finally meet.
Page 7: After millions and millions of years Mike and ? were so close they could finally meet.
Page 8: And maybe they would each have a new friend.
Bailey this is a wonderful idea! I'm trying to help you think of names for the other stalagmites and tites but I cant think of one that rhymes fairly well together. However, this story is great! Where are you wanting to end up with it? I could see them meeting and becoming friends, that would be cute! Also, just another idea, if they meet and become friends they should try to see if they can friends around them as well! Awesome story!

Naners the Chunky Monkey
It was always a routine, to have a banana to start the day.
Naners would sit on his favorite branch, sometimes he would even lay.
One day was different, he looked down at himself and turned into a state of shock.
"I've eaten to much!" He exclaimed and began to run around the block.
He came across an ice cream stand
The ice cream man said "Hi, what brand?"
He thought and he thought
(I kind of want to direct this story to not being self conscious and enjoying who you are in your body. I want Naners to make his own ice cream type called "Chunky Monkey" but I am open to any other awesome ideas!)

Childhood Questions
5. When I was a child, my family did a lot of different activities for fun. Movies were a big part of my childhood that built towards a passion I still obtain today. The summer time is mainly a big time for movie watching for me and my brother. Our mother would take us to go see at least 3 movies a month at the local theater, Wehrenberg. I vaguely remember watching TMNT (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) and instantly thinking it was one of the best movies I have ever seen. It wasn't enjoyable just for me, but I am sure the rest of my family enjoyed the same experience as I did.
12. I didn't have any serious ailments or injuries as a child until I reached my early teen years. I still count this as my childhood years because of how serious it ended up being at the time. I was pitching in one of my baseball games and doing a fairly good job this particular game. It was about midway into the game before I took a baseball to the eye off of a batted ball. At the time, I couldn't comprehend anything because the ball came so quick, and the next thing I knew, I was in my dad's truck riding to the hospital. Turns out, the ball struck my face a couple of centimeters below my orbital bone. My doctor said I was lucky because if it hit my orbital bone, there was a good chance it would've broken and given me a larger impairment on my eyesight. Currently in my right eye, my vision is a little weak compared to my left eye. Since I have contacts, my right eye prescription is a little more heavier now.
15. I didn't necessarily have a specific favorite game as a child. However, I had a Playstation 2 gaming system I used to play all the time with a variety of different games. Anything from sports to fantasy and fictional games, I played everything they had to offer. I remember going to a store just down the road from my house to buy all of my games. It was essentially a better version of a Vintage Stock that always had good deals for the highest quality. I did other things besides gaming on a throwback console, but it was just so rememberable with how dear it was to my heart. So many good experiences and days were spent doing what I loved doing at the time.
