This morning, in the car on the way to school, we passed the usual patch of forest / park that’s just behind our house.
________________________________________________
C goes.. “I want to go to the forest and find my way home.”
P: Where’s your home?
C (points to our cluster of blocks): There.
P: Who lives there?
C: Daddy, mama, meimei. And Christian.
P: Who else?
C: Nothing else.
P: Nobody else? What about naughty korkor? Does he live there?
C: No he doesn’t live there. I don’t like naughty korkor. I shoot him.
P: Why don’t you like naughty korkor?
C: If I like naughty korkor, I’m naughty korkor.
P: So if you like naughty korkor you become naughty korkor? Is that what happens?
C: Yes.
