Pigeonholes

Somehow you always seemed more clued up when it came to things not quite normal when you were younger whither or not it was we ourselves at that point were rather like a squirrel hunting for nuts except for us it was more what we 'should' be doing at our age and were were preoccupied with knowing how old people were.

One the face of it, nothing unusual can be seen in this picture and many of us even now could put each child within a band by age but the boy in centre really does stand out.

He is appreciably taller than all his peers and a little more filled out which might lead some in isolation to assume he's an older boy but clearly he can't by judging by his company.

That's the funny thing around development both physically where we know boys grow at different rates and when it comes to their emotional, reasoning and academic abilities and that remains later on in life.

Perhaps it might be better to look more at what things people may like to do when comes to spending time together just keeping chronological age as just how many birthdays you had rather than being so hung up on 'age'?
