Tocayito

Today's experience of interacting with these children made me realize that yes, although we might come from different backgrounds, most children do have a lot of similarities and parallels in life. Boyfriends and Girlfriends for example; people from ASFG have them and so do people from CODENI.

My first interaction with the kids was sitting down with a couple of girls to help them do their homework. The girls proudly told us about their boyfriends. They introduced me to Nacho, my tocayo. I think meeting Nacho made me think even more about these parallels because I began thinking about what I was like when I was little. I found that my tocayo and I (at a youner age) shared a lot of similarities such as not wanting to do homework and wanting instead to do mischief and the things I like to do.
