I was making tuna fish yesterday when Jaime comes up, grabs the can and starts scrutinizing it.
“What?” I ask.
“Is this tuna dolphin safe?” she asks?
“I dunno’. Why, are you not gonna eat it if it’s not dolphin safe?”
“No. I only eat dolphin safe tuna.” says my environmentally conscious 10 year old.
She studies the can a few moments longer, and says,
“OK, good, it’s dolphin safe” pointing out the label and walks away satisfied.
I didn’t realize that 10 year old girls cared about stuff like that.
Oh Scott, this is only the beginning! And you can’t even blame it on her schooling, because you are in charge of that too!
I guess it’s good that she cares. I just never expected her first moral stance to be against commercial fishing. :-)
