Swati - A Wasted Baby

This was winter of 2006 and we went to New Zealand and Australia on Christmas break.
Swati was 4 and 3/4th and Agastya did not exist.We were in Tongario National Park and was just about to head out to Taupo. Swati wanted to spend more time there and we told her no. And she got upset. And that is how this started.
Swati said sobbing and crying, "Why did you have me when you did not want me? You wasted me. When parents have children when they do not want them, they waste them. Now I am a wasted baby. Now I have to go in a jungle and live alone and be sad and unhappy. Tell me why you wasted me."
Not to mention both mommy and daddy were just laughing listening to her.
