Like: little girl already takes something that serious and works hard on it.
Not like: Hard to believe that a 9 year old kid gets these ideas really by herself. I worry a little that her father is pushing her too much. Also investigating murders is maybe not something a child should do.
Not understand: Why is it such a big deal that someone reported something first? Never really got behind why that's a deal. Maybe this way you can understand your "job" more as a "game"? I don't see people switching from newspaper/blog number one to newspaper/blog number two, because number two reported one story faster.
- djaychela 11y agoI'm not sure about her not getting ideas like that herself. I'm a step-parent to four kids, and one in particular has an imagination that most people would kill for. She takes it upon herself to get into all sorts of things, writes stories with real depth of imagination and concepts behind them, and has recently taught herself to do stop-motion animation to tell these stories. I'm sure if she'd taken to journalism it would have been a similar story, so here I see a kid who has real ability and has taken to the role model she has in her father. Maybe Dad is pushing her too much, but maybe she's really into it. Reporting first seems a big deal to me as everyone else could well be copying what's already been reported. I would think that the first person to report it accurately is serving the most purpose (subject to being correct, etc).
