I'm not a brother, I'm just a child

At 5:34 on the 12th day of the fifth month, I woke up from a dream and had no sleepiness. I only heard the sound of birds swarming outside the window. The temperature in the early morning was extremely comfortable, and the mosquitoes who had worked hard all night also went back to sleep. After washing up, I ate two imperial bananas and made a cup of warm milk, thinking what to do? I remembered the inspiration I tapped on the computer when I watched the cartoon "Future of the Future" last night - I am not a brother, and I am just a child, so I started to work on this short article.

Being in a foreign company, the salary is rich. Due to the recent trade war, most of the company's products have increased export tariffs, which has greatly affected the company's business. The boss said: "Because the company's recent poor performance, your salary will drop by 50%. It's not because of your personal work ability, so I'm sorry to you." The reason seems to be sufficient, and the boss seems to be forgiven, but what do you think?

Before I was born, I had already felt the love from my parents. They often touched me, told me stories, and sang songs to me. I was full of anticipation for coming to this world. After the heart-piercing pain, I was given a ticket to play in this world, and I cried out to express my excitement. Although I am only a small child, I know very well the thoughts of adults. As long as I cry and make trouble, almost all the requirements I say can be fulfilled. I am the most important. I like to be mischievous and create all kinds of trouble - littering toys, doodling around, etc., just to get the attention of my parents, because I'm afraid of being alone. I also like to put on all kinds of cute expressions to please my parents, because they are always a lot of trouble. Such days I was centered, I never thought there would be a lost day.

With the release of the two-child policy, the 37-year-old desire to have children and continue offspring has sprung up like mushrooms, and many families are beginning to be ecstatic to welcome a new life. As a result, the center of the world of each family began to shift quietly - from the older child to the younger one. Weak children need more care and care. This is a simple truth, but my father often ignores it. My older child is just a child, but he doesn't understand any truth. The decrease in my love and attention has already made me aware of it, but I have always been reluctant to believe this fact, and I did not expect this day to come so quickly, until the moment when he wowed, I knew that everything was gone. I'm here, but I still don't want to give up, I still want to actively strive for it.

Lin Youjia's song "Innocent and Evil" wrote:

kind of mature

Falling from the World

Did you know you did it to me

what is the cruelest

It's you who beat me hard

Become an adult overnight

reckless innocence

turn into a road in an instant

scars that come

I mourn my stupidity

spouse

You know too much to hurt someone

how to harm your life

You are in his clean and sterile theme park

added bad guys

Poor innocent heart

Suddenly realize that selfishness is not too much

Yes, from this day onwards, I, an angel who is full of love and love, began to fall into the mundane world. My parents turned me into an adult overnight. I began to be innocent and do all kinds of weird behaviors. Begging in exchange for the favor that originally belonged to me, but instantly turned into scars along the way, being beaten and scolded for reasoning. Mom and Dad, do you know how harming a person can harm a life? Just when I was spoiled, I added bad guys to my clean and sterile theme park, and gave everything that belonged to me to others, pity my innocent heart, and suddenly realized that my selfishness is not too much .

Since knowing that my mother was pregnant with a new life, the whole family began to shift their attention consciously or unintentionally, gradually asking me to become independent, and occasionally getting angry because of my naughty, constantly telling me that I was already a brother, I Be obedient and learn to take care of your younger siblings. I also really want to listen to your words and accept your big truths, but I would like to ask, have you listened to my petty demands? I just need a little more attention and love, is this wrong?

    The worst Hosoda Mamoru. The setting is childish and shallow, and the narrative is confusing and boring. And I saw that I wanted to be beaten up by my parents all the time (maybe more than one), is this really not the Japanese version of a family planning propaganda film?
