Sharing is Not Natural

Some years ago I was on the playground with one of my boys, who was two years old at the time. Another child had brought his own toy to the playground, and refused to share it with my son. The mom extremely apologetic, and very dismayed. "He doesn't like to share!" she told me, seeming really shocked and worried by that. "Neither do I!" I replied, laughing. If there is one scoop of ice cream left in the freezer? My husband is on his own. Sharing is not a natural instinct. Of course, we have to do it anyway, so kids have to learn.
