Two bald boys.. two bald boys..
See how they play… see how the play
They all play on the floor mattress
That Abiy put down to ease the tandem nurse
Did you ever see such a thing in you lifeAs two bald boys..
[nyanyi ikut lagu ‘Three Blind Mice’]
Alhamdulillah, both of my boys are very close to each other. Sometimes Hafiy suka ‘bertindak liar’ but what to expect from a 18-month-old boy? When he is over-excited, he can’t control himself. Whoever sits beside him pasti jadi mangsa. But again, he’s still 18 month old so acceptable lah. It’s a different story if he’s 18 year old.
Hafiy loves to play with Fahry. He always offers his truck, books, cards, etc. ro his baby brother. Lawak kadang-kadang looking at them, when Hafiy hands any object to Fahry dengan muka macam “Ambil lah dik, ambil. Jom kita main sama-sama”. Hitting his baby brother is normal. Bukan dia sengaja. He still can’t has fully control over his own limbs. Even his eye-hand coordination pun still weak.
Some mothers with kids with close age gap having some things in common, one of them is ‘abang suka pukul adik’. We’re not excluded. But from my observation:
-
He’s not jealous or something, he just can’t distinguish his brother as a little baby. He wants to play with the baby like playing with his other friends.
-
He is yet to fully control his body.
-
He just wants to pat, but his energy bursts.
-
He’s a little kid himself.
One thing I always put in mind is “Never put any label on my children”. Except labels like ‘Si Pandai’,’Si Kacak’… Tu OK la.
I think a mother shouldn’t stop saying (if any), “Anak sulung I ni nakal sangat, suka sangat pukul adiknya”. It’s 2 things.. NAKAL SANGAT and SUKA SANGAT PUKUL ADIK. 2 things that if a mother says it over and over again, would i be granted?
Is kids’ manner ‘formed’ by their parents or the kids’ unique personality?
I’m not sure about this, cos I never have experience talking to any parents yang anaknya tergolong dalam group ‘nakal tak bertempat dan tak boleh dikawal’. I really want to know how do they feel when their kids asal masuk rumah orang mula rasa nak tunggang terbalikkan everything.
Are you one of them? Mind to share?
