I do not think like a child, I know better. Unfortunately, I often still feel like a child. I feel fear right in the pit of my stomach, and I still want to hit or run - or walk three blocks out of the way to avoid a confrontation. It takes courage to love in a threatening world such as this. It is not child's play, but a courage that is found in our spiritual maturity.
Children project their fear onto someone or some force outside themselves.
It's her fault. They blame others and can't see their own complicity in the offense. This is the story of Adam and Eve, children at play in paradise, who break the rule and do not fess up , but rather hide and lie, blaming someone else. The serpent made me do it. One of the Broadbent family myths is about the time my brother broke a lamp in his room playing basketball with rolled up socks and a wastebasket.
