Children who take responsibility

 Children who take responsibility

It seems unfair on a child to not know that the parents are the ones meant to take the responsibility.

A Child has no resources and yet there are all these demands that they’re expected to meet, so they’re expected to provide pens for school and expected to find a new dentist when the dentist  tells them They can’t see them anymore, they’re expected to find a way into the house when they’ve lost their front door key, and they do all these things alone without any adult or even a second child around just them selves to sort them self out and it seems unfair on the children from the age of 7 to be responsible for looking after the money, so I can buy breakfast, looking after the front door key, catching a train walking to school, Explaining the loss of their uniform hat to the headmistress because it was stolen from them on the train and thrown out of the train window, finding an alternative way home if the trains are stopped, delayed or cancelled, the panic that went on when the bus changed its route and I suddenly panicked I wasn’t on the right bus  - there is no adult there to reassure you and it’s on fair on children to take on all these burdens the RSPCA when I called round about the cat the menu do gardening to the garden I wanted payment and were waiting to for someone to come home so that they could get exact their payment and I have course came home alone and so you’ve got for Bigg man who will want their money And a little girl and of course it’s not right at the men should have surrounded me demanding this money as if I was an adult not a child in school uniform but it was also not right for the parents of the child my parents to have left me to deal with that at all in the first place and it’s not that they could necessarily have behaved that way but they knew that they were leaving me to deal with responsible things so if I were to think even dream of leaving my child who is now 10 nearly 11 for a few minutes I wouldn’t do it because no one knows what might happen and it’s not fair to leave him to deal with the responsibility he says he’ll be fine and he’ll be fine an cause he will be fine because for the most part all that would happen is a B at home alone and I’d be out, but the thing is what if something did happen , It’s not fair for him to have the responsibility if something were to happen because he is a child and I am the adult they could be anything just could be a man calling around wanting to know if you need another wants to take a catalogue and then when the child accepts it thinking are well whatever the man I want to come round to collect the money never asked for any money left it with a child and what are you supposed to tell the RSPCA you want to come round and again there is no adult available. It’s not fair for him to have the responsibility if something were to happen because he is a child and I am the adult they could be anything just could be a man calling round wanting to know if you need another wants to take a catalogue and then when the child accepts it thinking or what whatever the man wants to come round to collect the money never asked for any only left it with a child and what are you supposed to tell the RSPCA you want to come round and again there is no adult available. 

There is calling radio rentals when the television went on the blink And all manner of things would need to be dealt with if you are the responsible person at home even if you are a primary school pupil what is actually odd is how the other adults in these things behaved as if I should be responsible and not as if there should be a responsible adult. And what responsible parent would leave a little girl at home to book in the van for radio rentals see him in and supervise him during his visit while he repair television who allows a strange man to be invited into their home leaving their little girl home alone with him. it certainly surprised my friend’s mother one day, and by this time I’m in secondary school so I might be as much as 12, and I’m home alone of course and it’s the summer holidays; my friend lived in Colchester or Braintree and they were going to the beach at Moulden for a day trip during the Summer holidays. this took them past my house on Maldon Road, so they stopped and asked if I wanted to come with them. when I open the door I was holding half of the food processor as I was knocking up some concoction or other and they said that I could go with them, and that they could share their sandwiches so I went, and it seemed to surprise them over there was no one to ask or tell that I was going out. now, this was a rare trip in a car And as we drove to Maldon I recognised the road because my grandmother, who had died when I was eight, had also taken us to Moulden in her car and I said, “oh I remember this road”, and my friend sarcastically said, “oh, you remember that tree?”, because of course for them it was normal to go out and about in the car and for me it revived the memory of the last time I took a trip in the car at least four years before. and this is why it would be unfair to use car Road related analogies in school lessons as much as it is unfair to use central heating analogies in school lessons  - not everyone has a car and not everyone has central heating but overall of course the analogy was used to bully me by Mrs Dent my biology teacher more than just because she fondly imagine everyone had central heating.
