Sorry that it will involve a delay in showing your contributions.<br /><br /><b> The Elephant's Child</b><br />I'm sure you're correct with both guesses. The children - who first raised this as a philosophical/theological issue - also had a range of answers.<br /><br /><b>Brian </b><br />That is what the children mostly thought - but some had way-out suggestions as to how that might be achieved!<br /><br /><b>Leovi </b><br />I have always thought that of humans, but pets was a new thought for me.<br /><br /><b>daydreamertoo </b><br />Thanks, most everythin was nice at that school.<br /><br /><b>Ygraine </b><br />Thanks. I must say, I hadn't expected the comments to be so unanimous. <br /><br /><b>Tommaso </b><br />I think we could all say AMEN to that. Thanks for the appreciative words.<br /><br /><b>Cait </b><br />There you go then - the sychronicity of the web strikes yet again!<br /><br /><b>Mary </b><br />I'm beginning to think you are part of the vast majority. Thanks for saying.<br /><br /><b>Carl </b><br />That's much what I thought at the beginning of my stint, but the children (9-10) took it all in their stride.<br /><br /><b>Dick </b><br />Hi, Good to hear from you. Thanks for the perceptive comment - not that it's a fine poem, bot that idle ponder often does lead ud there!<br /><br /><b>haricot </b><br />it was myexperience, yes, I did a six week practise as part of my training,<br />and took this one class for most of that time.Dave Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08430484174826768488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2508563923634392703.post-32079059724325896582012-07-26T10:45:12.526+01:002012-07-26T10:45:12.526+01:00I have never thought about that, even my former pe...I have never thought about that, even my former pet was cremated...<br />It's your experience when you were a student teacher?haricothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14052133324297115131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2508563923634392703.post-439098828062569782012-07-26T10:31:24.575+01:002012-07-26T10:31:24.575+01:00A delightful speculation!
