Lou's Diary
A little prince, not quite like the others
  Hello, I am a little boy who only sees right with his heart...
Which doesn't make my parent's daily life any easier. So I'm blind and different (mentally speaking).

Lou on the djembe

 
 
 
 
 
 

Welcome to Lou's blog


This blog was born in french during autumn 2003 and is now progressively being translated in your language.

New articles will therefore appear on a regular basis.
 

DISCLAIMER


... my apologies to the people who hadn't understood this yet, all articles on this website are created and written by myself (his dad).

Lou is currently unable to do it,, just like he is to this day unable to grasp the concept of a "computer", "internet", or to focus for a long period of time on a conversation. Only time will tell us if we manage to integrate him completely in the world in which he lives.

Therefore all stories, despite relating actual facts, are obviously biased by my interpretation of his behavior. But having known him for over five years, I don't think I'm getting it wrong.

THANK YOU


Thank you to the "Roi Baudoin" foundation ( "Parcours hors pistes" ). The new design, hosting and translations were partially made possible by their financial support.
 
Many thanks to Marco Pappalardo et Laetitia Bouet for the translation.

108. I must say...

(the little prince and the tyrants -2- continued)

I must say, to be completely honest, that I did enter my "no phase" a few weeks ago.
I say "no" to everything, about everything, about anything (including the things I like) : just to see ... who's boss !

No, I don't want to go to the market with daddy on sunday (we went anyway and I had lots of fun : the funfair was there with the merry-go-rounds)
No, I don't want to go to bed, take my bath, eat, play, obey...

....so the tension rises and my parents deploy the big artillery : they can't afford a trench war or to let me have the last word.
Even worse, I can tell they have formed and alliance and are sticking together. They use the big artillery right away : deep voice, and as a last resort, force !
....And I can't compete with that.
Good thing I found my favorite battlefield : the staircase.
It's a very convenient place because I can cling to it therefore making it easier to resist.

Ok, I do hear their ultimatums (they count to three), sometimes it's even enough to make me raise the white flag (just so I can get a break), but honestly sometimes they push it too far.

I'm telling you they're a vicious bunch !
Not only do they use their authority, they try to go sentimental on me. After an argument it's always the same old song : "Too bad Loulou.
Daddy (or mommy) don't like to get angry and use force. It's not fun for them, and it's not fun for Lou either. You must understand that you must obey grown ups who know what's good for you or not."

After that it's my turn to try to charm them : "You see that you musn't be afraid! You must obey daddy and mommy little dog Courage".

And bam, the answer bursts forth - calmly - : -No, it's Loulou who must obey mommy and daddy.
And I conclude with a hug (because I still like them after all). I hold them tightly in my arms and tell them :
-I musn't do little dog Courage all the time, or "Bébé Cadum"*.
And we make up, until next time ...

It seems this is also part of learning about life...

*"Cadum" : famous trade markt of soap with the face of a good baby. ;-)

Lou,
I started my "NO" phase when I was about your age - I'm still waiting to grow out of it and I'm 35. Try to be a good boy and do as Mummy and Daddy ask you.

You don't tell me if it's finished now (your "No" phase) ;-)
