You made a very emotional and beautiful post, @nancybriti. Although my childhood was very lonely and detached from the family (as perhaps is still my life), I appreciate those who had, like you, that rich childhood provided by the family.
Of course, many of the children's legends (the Baby Jesus and Christmas toys, for example) and the influence of comics were in my childhood life (I wanted to be a "little samurai"; hence my inclination to ancient Chinese and Japanese culture?).
Children's imagination and emotional-spiritual freedom must be the issues that every society willing to develop healthily should guard; for which families and their needs should be covered, as well as an education that respects and nurtures that imagination.
Thank you for your good post. Greetings.
