Aww, poor Ivy. She needed a bit of humbling, but that kind of did come across as harsh. Adele's gonna have to be a little more tactful in future, I'm thinking.

This reminds me of a specific child I once played with for like half an hour or so... We went to somebody's home when I was younger and there was a kid who knows me and the kid wanted to play with me but couldn't make up her mind, she wants to play something, then a few minutes later gets bored and decides to do something else and this goes on and on... Just like Ivy wanting to try every job but get tired very quick. And if you go tell that to a child straightforward like Adele did, that might break the child's heart like that. Fortunately for the adults, most children don't remember such trivial things when they grow up... And kids have got to learn life somehow...

I suspect a fair amount of the hurt isn't shame. She got started on the job thing because of what Weaver said - "a job is why we're important". Adele has unintentionally just proven that Ivy isn't important because she can't finish a job. Hopefully Adele's approach to her after this will include a job that she really can do well without quickly getting bored.

Any comments left here are PUBLIC. If you are not comfortable with that, mail me directly.
