    According to the book “The Five People You Meet in Heavens,” children liked Eddie. Not teenagers. Teenagers gave him headaches. Over the years, Eddie figured he’d seen every sort of do-nothing, snarl-at-you teenagers there was. But children were different. Children looked at Eddie- who with his protruding lower jaw, always seemed to be grinning, like a dolphin- and they trusted him. They drew in like cold hands to a fire- they hugged his leg. They played with his keys. Eddie mostly granted, never saying much. He figured it was because he didn’t say much that they liked him.

    In the real life:
    I have found this situation many times before. Just when I came home my nephews hug me and ask me candies. They are kids, and they love who gives them attention. However, teenagers usually don’t like to play with adults, and they like to make things by themselves. Also, they always want more space, so they feel free. They do this to get adults’ attention. Supporting teenagers and encouraging them have a very important fact on their self-esteem. Adults should be patient with teenagers because they are in a sensitive period. For these reasons, adults always like to play with children, but they get headache from teenagers as how Eddie felt in the story.
