07.11.2010

Today, at the rehabilitation station I decided to bowling with the boy I was playing with, Umut. We went of to the side and started playing. After a few minutes, more people started to come to join us, and soon we had about 8 kids trying to play bowling with only 2 balls. As I tried to set up the pins quickly and jump out of the way before I got hit by the ball I realized that Umut was just sitting there, watching while the other kids who acted faster than him and grabbed the ball play. I didn't know what to do this situation. I was trying to make sure that we were being fair and that everyone got a turn, but at the same time I wanted Umut to have fun. But all of the kids there deserve to have fun, and that's why I didn't do anything when I saw that one mother was catching the ball before everyone else and that her son bowled every time when there were kids who only bowled once or twice.(Plus, she didn't speak Turkish)
