I have a kid, and I am broken on a daily basis as I see him grow to love, build relationships with, and then eventually outgrow cherished toys.

My own childhood sucked, and one of the constants I had in my life were my car toys. They were thrown away, out of spite. This article also hit me in a few different emotional places.



I hope and guess that one constant in your kid's life is you. And I hope his/her childhood doesn't resemble yours. Toys accompany you through childhood, parents through life. I lost the latter too early.


I’m happy mine are dead. They were horrible.


While I had not horrible yet very absent parents I believe in the next generation. There is room to makes better for your own. It usually is difficult but nontheless a good purpose in life.
