I encourage my kids to ask questions. I am starting to rethink that plan. As they get older the questions become more complicated. Gone are the how does Santa get from house to house in one night. Why does the dog not like me to pull her tail. Where does snow come from?
The questions now are why are you tired all the time? Why cann't you drive me to the store?
The questions seem harmless until you explain that you have a disease. Young mind cannot fully understand the concept that your body is attacking itself and that you are unable to stop it. Adults cannot understand the concept. How is a child supposed to understand?
