Lions

So today, as I was teaching, I finally came to an understanding why Lions reject their teenage/younger lions from the Pride and they have to find their own way in the world. I no longer feel sorry for them or misunderstand the parents. I fully support them and that group decision to kick them out. You want to know the reason why and how I came to that conclusion? Well... because teenage anything are so annoying and can't really comprehend what real reality is. They think everything should be gifted to them(hunting and meat done and brought to them). They need to be kicked out to realize how lucky they are and prove their worthiness, and this only happens as they get older and realize how lucky they were. Only when they are fully mature and accomplish something, and only then do females deign to even consider looking at them or considering them as possible parts of the pride.

Can you see how this is comparative to teenage boys(actually girls too)? I think they need to have a few hard knocks of real life and then they can actually appreciate what they have. Too bad I can't be the one to deliver a few of them. Just thought I would share my ever evolving wisdom that is formed from teaching school and adolescents.
