Ethics and Nature: Watch out for little boys!
Watch out for the little boys!
As I walk around my house on a typical afternoon, I am often followed by two tornadoes. On tornado is large and slow and the other hits quick and fast. These two tornadoes come in the forms of my boys.
As I complete my assignment on Ethics in Nature, it makes me realize I haven't really taught my boys enough about respecting nature. I did not grow up in a home where we went camping or hiking or really anything with green stuff, unless it was the mold on the bread in the kitchen.
My boys love the outdoors. My new mission is to teach them to respect Mother Nature. I need to teach my son that when he puts his rolie-polie's in his bug carrier that he needs to release them before bedtime so they are not belly up in the morning. They need to learn to take the sidewalk and not trample through the flowers.
This course will be a learning experience for me. Maybe I will become more of a country girl with two boys who will become hunters, anglers and outdoors men?
