Wubsy

I remember when I was a kid I had a copy of The Little Red Hen that my mom used to make me go and get and bring to my sister (that is nine years older than me) when she thought my sister needed to be reminded that she reaps what she sows. And looking back at that now it's really funny that my mom did that to her because that's the most ineffective way I can think to reinforce that kind of ideal into your kid, especially if your kid is my sister. I was thinking of that because I just watched an episode of some preschool cartoon that comes on at 5am and was reminded of a really valuable lesson. But it wasn't like when my mom would attempt to make my sister read my Little Red Hen book, which I can't imagine she ever did, I don't remember because I would run and hide in my room but I'm guessing my sister would throw the book at my mom and threaten to kill her.

So Wubsy lost at the bouncy bounce game then lost at nutty nut toss then lost at chewy cheese checkers so Wubsy got real bummed out and went to Widget and asked Widget to build him bouncy shoes and some weird Terminator wrist brace and the Chewy Cheat code 3000 game boy looking system and Wubsy went around to all of his friends to replay the games but cheated like a bitch and danced like a rude little bouncy yellow square after he won every time. Then all of his friends got together because they were curious why Wubsy was being such a douche and went to Widget and figured out he was cheating.

Then I was called into the other room and I didn't get to finish the episode. So I guess I didn't learn what I was supposed to learn out of that cartoon. All I learned is I hate Wubsy and everyone I've ever met like him. But it did remind me that people, including me, including me a lot, can't be told something that's best for them. They have to go and look for it themselves. If they aren't allowed to go look for it themselves they throw the book back in your face.

I need to read a lot more books =/
