@Nanny34589,
I like kids when they are little and just trying to figure things out... I really like to make contact with them, eye to eye, and smile; and it is wonderful how many happy children there are who meet life with a grin... Nothing more... I'm not looking for a long term relationship... I just like saying you're real, I'm real, and we're both real... But I don't have anything to do with older kids because they are low down lying pieces of ****... They do what they want to get what they want, and they learn who they can push around and who will put up a fight, and if you are willing to put up a fight they will lie, cheat or steal to see you gone...
I helped some little black kids in a group at the Y pool a few weeks back... The parents were right there, the life guard could not help and the parents were not dressed for it... The kids were scared, and I could see it, so I made contact, and it took some coaxing, but when one figured out I wasn't going to drown him I had them all asking for help, and rides and a hand to swim to... But I would not have done it without the parents there... One person getting burned by some rotten kid is enough to cure a lot of parents of even saying hello to the little snots... Those kids didn't trust me... I don't trust them, and in that we are even...
