"Why can't you fly now, mother?"
"Because I am grown up, dearest. When people grown up they forget the way."
"Why do they forget the way?"
"Because they are no longer gay and innocent and heartless. It is only the gay and innocent and heartless who can fly."

Every child is affected thus the first time he is treated unfairly. All he thinks he has a right to when he comes to you to be yours is fairness. After you have been unfair to him he will love you again, but will never afterwards to be quite the same boy. No one ever gets over the first unfairness.
