It is indeed normal for kids to ask lots of questions. The following is one of those few yet cute examples…
Scene: Sam and mommy is strolling along SM Department Store
Sam: (Suddenly recalls something) Unsa name friend tito Carl mommy? (What’s the name of Tito Carl’s friend?)
Mom: Eric
Sam: diba naa sya girlfriend? (She had a girlfriend, right?)
Mom: Oo. (Yes)
Sam: why man naa sya girlfriend mommy? (Why does he have a girlfriend?)
Mom: because big na man sya (because he is big)
Sam: si Tito Carl mommy naa sya girlfriend? (Does Tito Carl have a girlfriend?)
Mom: wala (None)
Sam: why man mommy, small pa sya? (Why mom, is he still small?)
Mom: (laughs and thinks for awhile thinking on what to say next) because wala pa man sya love. (Because he has no love of his life yet)
Sometimes parents just answer questions to their kids without even thinking. There are times that kids know better than their parents. Mostly, during those moments like the above circumstances, parents would be amazed to think that kids could ask such questions at their young age. Perhaps it is indeed true that kids nowadays are fast thinkers than the ones before them.
