Do u find liking fairy tales at the age of 13 guydish? I'm 13 yrs old, n still like Fairy tales...in fact, I love them! I have always been told that I'm premature, n behave much more mature than a normal guy of 13. But I find this only thing, which is kinda wierd... They remind me of my guyhood. A few classmates sometimes poke me for the same....What do u think? Is it really guydish? | | I don't think it's guyish at all, I enjoy watching fairy tale movies, and stuff like that and I am two years older than you, I still even watch cartoons, yeah perhaps other people your age and my age don't do this anymore, but I have some friends that still enjoy watching animated movies, and cartoons, don't change what you like just because others say its weird or guyish, and know that you are not the only one that likes fairy tales, i'm sure lots of people out there do too! anyway being different is like the best thing in the world! | Can guyren relate fairy tales to their own life? do guyren become more mature by watching fairy tale movies?? | | Kids relate stories to their own lives just like adults do, but maybe in somewhat simpler ways. Sure, fairy tales are probably good for guys' development, but probably just as much as any kind of story. | Is my goldfish mature for breeding ? i have 55g tank with 20 guppies ,mollies ,and male and female goldfish male is fan tale and female is double tail will they breed........i saw pimples on the gills of goldfish. will i need to separate them or they will breed in the same tank. first tell me that they r mature or not i brought them 1mth back they r not too small and not too big they r medium size .i m new and need help i don't know anything about goldfish. | | Does she have her period yet? | Books for mature eleven year olds? I have a daughter who is just about eleven years old, but every time we try to find books they are way to young or not her type. She doesn't like fairy tales and stuff like that but she loves magic, she has almost read the Harry Potter series -which she loves- four times. recommendations? | The Last Apprentice series by Joseph Delaney - It's a great series. I loved it when I was 12, and I still like the books now, at 16. The books aren't too young, but definitely not too much for an 11 year old. Also, if you live in the UK, the series is called the Wardstone Chronicles.
The Charlie Bone series by Jenny Nimmo- This series is magical, and great for 11 year olds. It's a cool story and I really liked the books when I was your daughter's age.
The Magyk series by Angie Sage- I was never a fan of this series, but it's really, really magical. A lot of my friends loved the series when they were 11 and 12. It's pretty interesting.
The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis- If she hasn't read them, then she should. They're a classic! And really, really good.
The Percy Jackson series by Rick Riordan- I've never read the books, but I've heard nothing but good things about them. They're apparently popular with Harry Potter fans, and they seem great.
Good luck :)
Edit: Some of the books in earlier posts, like the Mortal Instruments, are a bit mature for an 11 year old. They're for teens, not guys. | Have we not matured enough to stop using fairy tales and imaginary authority figures to---? ---instill a built-in moral corrective into our population? | It appears that mankind likes answers. We moderns benefit from a brain addition, development, mutation, whatever, called the cerebral cortex. This advanced brain allows us may options unavailable to out nearest cousin, Neanderthal.
I imagine that both Neander and the new arrival, Cro Magnon, us, both contemplated inexplicable phenomenons such as the Sun, Moon, lightening, fire and the like.
Did our ancestors have correct answers? No!
Did the absence of reliable assumption stop them from deciding about these things? No.
Did many miss assumptions survive and get passed on to future generations? Yes.
Were these miss assumptions then taught as..."knowledge"? Yes.
So the answer is...we are not yet ready, as a species, to do without our easy answers, our up or down answers, our black or white answers.
We see this in religion, politics, even pseudo-scholarly articles and published works. We want simple answers, no matter how ridiculous they turn out to be.
Is someone asks, sincerely, a question about the character Moses they do not want to hear that the character didn't exist, that he was allegory, that his creation served a literary purpose the writer felt necessary for purposes of allegory and teaching. They do not want to have pointed out for them that imaginary beings with super powers were a misguided miss assumption by stone-age peoples who probably didn't have a written language.
We all want verification of our assumptions and ideas...give it to us or shut-the-#%$& up!
Facts and actual knowledge is not now, nor have they ever been...popular.
"Don't bother us with the facts, just tell us what we want to hear" ! | Why is it that as we grow older we mature??? Haven't you realized that, not many of us believe in fairy tales or that a monster is hiding in your closet anymore, not like when you were a little guy and always had your mom/dad sit be your side and wacth over you as you fall asleep. Do we mature, because we start to realize what real reality is??? | Maturity....means advancing not only in years but also in spiritual matters, and earthly intellect.
As long as you can breath and think....you mature.
If you don't mature and are still alive breathing and thinking but you are not maturing then you are into a state of brain degeneration,
Or as I prefer to call it a state of "Brain Rot". There are others who would call it 'Alsheymer's" decease. This state of "Brain Rot" I believe is caused mainly by the foods we eat and the 'sedentary' lives we live and 'our environment' full of pollutants. BUTT I still beleive in the tooth fairy, Santa Claus, Mickey Mouse, Thanksgiving, the U,S. of America and GOD all mighty. This is my "REALITY'.
So please eat well, live active lives, stay out of and fight pollution, and use the God word in a very MATURE way. | How do I get revenge on my evil boss? The HR Manager in my firm absolutely hates me and goes out of her way to make my life a misery. She does it all very subtly, starting rumours about me, telling tales about me (for no reason), telling other departments I have no work.
I get on very well with my immediate bosses and have asked them for help with the situation but whilst they admit she's in the wrong they just want to 'let it all calm down'. Easy for them to say!
I want to 'pee in her pickle jar' in such a way that she'll never know that I did anything but that nothing will ever be quite right again. I don't care if I sound evil or petty, enough is enough and since I can't sort this problem out in a mature fashion I want to sort it out this way.
Any ideas on what I could do? | | DO NOT STOOP TO HER TACTICS. That could cost you your job. Speak to your immediate bosses again or better still do it by email or letter that way you have a hard copy. Ask for their reply by email or letter. If they are not willing to confront the situation write to them again and say if this is not sorted out within a certain time frame (say two weeks) you will go to their bosses with the reply they have given you. This can be classed as harrassment or bullying in the workplace and should not be tolerated by any company. If your immediate bosses bosses do nothing take it further to your union representative. | Fairy tales and fantasy shorts? ive been watching pans labarynth and she tells some storys in them that seem interesting, i really wouldent mind reading other fairy tales rather than just the red riding hood, more mature ones maybe | | Then pick up a book of Russian fairy tales. Now those are really the interesting ones! If you can, get a translation of the collection by Afanasiev. I bought mine over 20 years ago, but there might be a newer one out there by now. Or find some folk tales from Africa, especially the cycle about Gassire's Lute. Japan and China have some fascinating tales as well, including some about how to make a bell have a good sound that'll make shivers run up your spine (Tales from Times Long Past is a good book). Australia is the most interesting though... | Fairy Tale Love or Mature Love? Is it possible to have love for someone who makes you laugh, will take care of you and provide for you, who is your friend, who you are sexually attracted to, who can withstand your flaws, who can love you even when you are not looking or smelling the best, and have not had an infatuation stage? Is this possible to have and at the same time, don't have to miss him everyday, can live and breathe if you all don't talk to each other during the day, can give each other space since you all are trying to establish your careers, and don't be extremely head over heels in love with one another? The both of us have stupidly fallen in love in our previous relationships...but this seems calmer and i feel horrible because I felt heavy infatuation with my last and only long term relationship, and i thought that i was deeply in love. But the fact that i don't have that heavy infatuation with my current beau, makes me think that im not in love? But he is like me in so many ways that you would think that we were kin. Im in nursing school and i realize that if i was completely engorged in my relationship like i was when i was 16, then i may not be able to focus on myself much. Now Im 22 and about to graduate. Do I not have what i had then because I've matured? I've put my career and goals before him, when I put my ex on a pedalstool? I mean, i even think that i've found a better match in my man than my old one, but why do i look at infatuation as a precursor to love when overall it's really a wake-up call to all of your insecurities? Any grown, working, dating, experienced individuals can tell me what has happened? Have i just grown up? Or is this just bull that Im writing? Thanks. | Hi well u have put it really well,it seems to me u have matured past the early teen type love at all costs YES?
