"Finished The Little Mermaid. Had to tweak the ending for the 4 YOs. As I suspected, they aren't ready for this. If you are a parent to a child under 5, when experts say fairy tales and mythology don't go down well/are not a great idea of little ones, believe them. I introduced them quite late and I still don't think they enjoy it so much." — May 25, 2025 11:21AM

Museebat mein bhi Mathuron ki sharafat kam nahin hoti; Karo soney ke sau tukde, magar qeemat kam nahin hoti.

“The Standover Man. all my life, I've been scared of men standing over me. I suppose my first standover man was my father, but he vanished before I could remember him. For some reason when I was a boy, I liked to fight. a lot of the time, I lost. Another boy, sometimes with blood falling from his nose, would be standing over me. Many years later, I needed to hide. I tried not to sleep because I as afraid of who might be there when I woke up. But I was lucky. It was always my friend.When I was hiding. I dreamed of a certain man. The hardest was when I traveled to find him. Out of sheer luck and many footsteps, I made it. I slept there for a long time. Three days, they told me...and what did I find when I woke up? Not a man, but someone else standing over me. As time passed by the girl and I realized we had things in common. But there is one strange thing. The girl says I look like something else. Now I live in a basement. Bad dreams still live in my sleep. One night, after my usual nightmare, a shadow stood above me. She said, "Tell me what you dream of." So I did. In return, she explained what her own dreams were made of. Now I think we are friends, this girl and me. It was she who gave me a gift - to me. It makes me understand that the best standover man I've ever known is not a man at all...”
