Future Actuary
Monkey's class got to fly kites in their science lesson today. They were supposed to learn about the properties of air.
MonkeyMama and MonkeyDaddy were both there to help the class. Kids were very excited to fly kites. They each got one cheap kite and they had to put it together.
Monkey's kite broke down several times. She cried, and her daddy would go over and fix it for her. Later, MonkeyDaddy was busy helping other kids with their kites, so MonkeyMama helped Monkey to fly the kite. They managed to get the kite highest in the sky.
MonkeyMama was so excited because she never flew a kite before, so she let the string go, but Monkey was very upset: "No! No! Not so high!! It would break!!!" She was so risk-averse, she would make a fine actuary.
Monkey stared crying again, MonkeyMama told her that the kite should fly high in the sky. Monkey refused to listen; her mom got mad and left.
Monkey's friends helped her bring down the kite.
At the end of the class, Monkey gave her daddy a hug, "I like you better than Mommy."
Whatever.
