Oh MY,…again! One can discern the beginnings of that long stretch of the mammals’ ontogeny, moving out into the world of THE OTHER, especially other adult mammals who address them with the expectation the adult will be heard and obeyed. First preschool, then kindergarten, now martial arts, each successive cell farther removed from the mom and dad they have learned have loved them enough to allow being ignored. God bless the wormholes (and parental creativity) encountered along the way!
Hope they tire themselves out and you get a break.
How grand!
