Now it is summer time and I have developed habit of going to the  park with my daughter, so that she can have fun time. yesterday was one such trip to park and a memorable one for me. She was playing with swing , slides, discovering all the fun that monkeys would have in the play area. She also tried to climb a rock with the help of her daddy totally leaning on him and having smile of achieving something great. Next she came over to play on the sand. There was this interesting thing happened. There was one Asian boy about 4 years old standing there and protecting a small plant as if it was his territory. There were other kids and they never noticed him and never went near him. Now there is my daughter who found something interesting about the boy, looked at him, gauged him, took a handful of sand and went near him. He immediately reacted saying “No”. She came back to me and told me that the boy said No to her. I asked her to leave the place and play somewhere else. She did not listen to me as usual. She wanted to do something about it since he told no to her. She took another handful of sand, took continuous breadth as if she was going to fight, staring at him in wrath. She took slow steps still staring at him, the boy was totally in defending state. He had this shovel and tried to stop her hand. But she somehow managed to put the sand on the plant. Immediately the boy was trying to wipe the sand out. She came back with smile on her face. I thought she was going to play something else. But she did this again and again, dumping sand on the plant. The boy was shouting No, she was shouting no, but still she managed to dump the sand on the plant pushing his shovel. The boy could not do anything , other than leaving the plant. Finally the territory was captured by her.
