C: "If they try to make me an astronaut I would be very angry."
Daddy: "I thought you wanted to be an astronaut."
C: "I do. I just don't want them to make me. I can make it by myself."

...and sometimes kids don't say anything at all.
"The ethical storm over abortions has been renewed as it emerged that terminations are being carried out for minor, treatable birth defects.
Late terminations have been performed in recent years because the babies had club feet, official figures show.
Babies are being aborted with only minor defects.
Other babies were destroyed because they had webbed fingers or extra digits.
Such defects can often be corrected with a simple operation or physiotherapy. "

Science: Dolphins know each others' names???
Dolphins ‘know each other’s names’ - Sunday Times - Times Online: "DOLPHINS may be closer to humans than previously realised, with new research showing they communicate by whistling out their own “names”.
The evidence suggests dolphins share the human ability to recognise themselves and other members of the same species as individuals with separate identities. The research, on wild bottlenose dolphins, will lead to a reassessment of their intelligence and social complexity, raising moral questions over how they should be treated."
There you have it, the smarter you are, the better we should treat you!
