Yesterday when we are coming back from my Son's school reading night, he asked...
1. Who is a president?
A. I told him that he is the leader of our country and explained in other simple terms the usual definitions so that a Kindergartener would understand
2. Why do we need a president?
A. Well, I started off with a question back to him asking why they (students) need a class leader and line leaders and again explained in simple terms why we need a president.
He acknowledged to be satisfied with my answers at the moment but somehow I sense he is really not satisfied at least completely.
This kept me thinking all the while during my morning commute. Why do we really need a president in the current socio-economic conditions and does people really are convinced that we need a good president. If they are, why there are so many questions in different forms around us?? I have more pondering to do...
PS: Please let me know your thoughts on how you would deal with your children's interesting questions like these.
