While travelling back to college in Hyderabad in Indian Railways, I figured two main things about the kids in my coach-
1st India’s most lousy kid(younger brother of the irritating guy) who eventually has amazing stamina (to cry and scream) is in my cabin.
2nd Most of kids just start showing the way their personality is going to shape up and how they are going to behave socially in near future, quite early in their life cycle. In fact I was reminded of an old Saying -“POOT ke PAOON PALNE me hi DIKHAI PAD JATE HEIN”.
One of them(~3yrs) was just being irritated and constantly crying being over protected by his parents. He just hate if his independence is encroached. These sorts of kids are very shy and they don’t mix up with other kids easily. They later on get into a habit of being dependent on others. While having dinner he didn’t eat SABJI brought by his mom but eats all the stuff (sabji from ma neighbor and Curd from me) from fellow travelers with great delight.
One guy(~4 yrs) was just too cheerful roaming in the coach and he was too delighted to see other kids in fact he even came to get friendly with the overprotected kid in my cabin, But due to lack of response from the kid he kept running.
There was a sweet girl (~5yrs)dressed in pink with very cute smile and a charming glow in her eyes she just get very irritated by the touch of even a small particle of dust. She will rub and clean it with towel(which she digs out of the bag which has all her personal stuff).She loves to give pretty smile every time someone cuddles and yet she gets friendly with people easily and seems very energetic.
I observed one more kid who must have been of same age(~3yrs) (i.e. of irritating and reserved kid).He looks more pretty although with big cheeks but still he is very active just won’t let her mom rest. He will urge her to play hid and seek (yes in train and he will high behind the curtain) or play our age old “Chidiya UD ” game, or is hungry every 20 odd minutes(he just loved chocolate) , his mother allows him to get friendly to people is not very restraining so the guy is also very cheerful and friendly.
Although my research is very restrictive and sample size is limited to 4 kids I still have a sample which is distributive and is from various parts of country and different states and thus hail from different culture, which depicts how personality starts to shape up very early in life, much before they get into cut throat competition

Awesomelly cute article and made me have a goofy smile...kids is a subject i relate to and yeah been encountering kids of all kinds and its true personality shapes up early.... a surprising article from you and i loved it....would have love to see ur reactions to these kids first hand
I believe this is more about the observations we make during traveling, which we do not do generally even if the same thing is in front of us. These are the charms of traveling which makes it a wonderful experience, always.
And this is one of the most beautiful deep and interesting observations made. Great work!! ;-)
we have a similar phrase in marathi.. like "poot ke paon.."
And over the last months, I've been feeling like the phrase is soooooooo true.
Makes me wonder why people (kids) act the way they do - is it their nature or nurture.
btw, the guitar music on ur blog is cool.
