"என்னிடம் குழந்தைகள் ஒட்டுவதே இல்லை!"
சிறிது நேரம் பேசியவுடன் விளங்கின எனக்கு
அரிய பல உண்மைகள் அவளிடமிருந்து.
குழந்தையை எழுப்புபவர்.... டாடி!
குழந்தைக்குப் பல் தேய்த்து விடுபவர்....டாடி!
குழந்தையைக் குளிப்பாட்டுபவர்....டாடி!
குழந்தைக்கு உணவு ஊட்டுபவர்.... டாடி!
குழந்தைக்கு ஆடை அணிவிப்பவர் ... டாடி!
குழந்தையைப் பள்ளிக்கூடம் அழைந்துச் செல்பவர்... டாடி!
குழந்தைக்குக் கதை சொல்லித் தூங்க வைப்பவர் ...டாடி!
குழந்தை "pee" & "poop" போக வைப்பவர்... டாடி!
இப்படி எல்லா வேலைகளையும் டாடி செய்யும் போது
எப்படி, எதற்காக ஒட்டும் அந்தக் குழந்தை இவளிடம்???

It all depends as to how the parents are consistent when they respond
to the child’s needs.
Normally when a child weeps, whoever respond in a loving or caring way
only to them the child will get attachment.
When a child is hungry, whoever understands the child and feed her/him fairly soon
only to them the child will get attached.
When a child is afraid, whoever come forward to take care of her/him, the child
will get more attachment.
When the child gets excited about something, whoever also get excited about that
and play with that child, it will get an attachment.
A child normally feels secured when he/she plays with other kids, whoever introduces them.
The secure child usually plays well with other children his age.
A child will normally weep only when a person of their choice leave them and go out.
They will soon settle down and when then come back and comfort them.
Normally a child will be happy to see a person, who picks them up from the Childcare Centre.

I do not know, how far it is true. But I have read that Mexicans are mixed population
by birth, owing to the Spanish who came down there and conquered the Native population,
and in stages converted them to Catholicism and turned them to speak Spanish. Mexican's
origin is not cent percent local population.

Friday the 13th is considered an unlucky day only in Western superstition.
The origin of the Friday the 13th superstition is believed to be derived from
the Last Supper, that having thirteen people seated at a table will result in the
death of one of the diners. The Last Supper is the final meal that, according to
Christian belief, Jesus shared with his twelve Apostles in Jerusalem on a Friday
before his crucifixion.

The fear of Friday the 13th has been called friggatriskaidekaphobia
(Frigga being the name of the Norse goddess for whom "Friday" is named and
triskaidekaphobia meaning fear of the number thirteen),
or paraskevidekatriaphobia[SUP]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friday_the_13th#cite_note-9[/SUP]a concatenation of the Greek words Paraskeví (meaning "Friday"), and
dekatreís (meaning "thirteen") attached to phobía (meaning "fear").
The latter word was derived in 1911[SUP]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed[/SUP] and first appeared in a mainstream source in 1953.[SUP]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friday_the_13th#cite_note-11[/SUP]

Tuesday the 13th
In Spanish-speaking countries, instead of Friday, Tuesday the 13th (martes trece) is considered a day of bad luck.
The Greeks also consider Tuesday (and especially the 13th) to be an unlucky day. Tuesday is considered to be
dominated by the influence of Ares (Mars), the god of war. A connection can be seen in the etymology of the name
in some European languages (Mardi in French or martes in Spanish). The Fall of Constantinople to the Ottomans
happened on Tuesday, May 29, 1453, fact that strengthens the superstition about Tuesday. In addition, in Greek
the name of the day is Triti meaning literally the third (day of the week), adding weight to the
superstition, since bad luck is said to "come in threes".
Courtesy Wikipedia
Note TRITI = third (reminding us of the popular Akshaya thruteeyai).
Misfortunes coming in triplets is also a popular Indian concept!
It is said "oNNU thappinaa mooNu!" :scared:

In Italian popular culture, Friday the 17th (and not the 13th) is considered a day of bad luck.[SUP]
[/SUP]In fact, in Italy, 13 is generally considered a lucky number.[SUP]
[/SUP]
However, due to Anglo-Saxon influence, young people consider Friday the 13th to be unlucky as well.[SUP]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friday_the_13th#cite_note-15[/SUP]
The 2000 parody film Shriek If You Know What I Did Last Friday the Thirteenth was released in Italy with the title
Shriek – Hai impegni per venerdì 17? ("Shriek – Do You Have Something to Do on Friday the 17th?").

Social impact
According to the Stress Management Center and Phobia Institute in Asheville, North Carolina, an estimated 17 to 21
million people in the United States are affected by a fear of this day making it the most feared day and date in
history. Some people are so paralyzed by fear that they avoid their normal routines in doing business, taking flights
or even getting out of bed. "It's been estimated that [US]$800 or $900 million is lost in business on this day".Despite
this, representatives for both Delta Air Lines and Continental Airlines say that their airlines do not suffer from any
noticeable drop in travel on those Fridays.

A paradox!!!
Rate of accidents
The Dutch Centre for Insurance Statistics (CVS) on June 12, 2008, stated that "fewer accidents and reports of fire
and theft occur when the 13th of the month falls on a Friday than on other Fridays, because people are
preventative and more careful or just stay home. Statistically speaking, driving is slightly safer on Friday the 13th,
at least in the Netherlands; in the last two years, Dutch insurers received reports of an average 7,800 traffic
accidents each Friday; but the average figure when the 13th fell on a Friday was just 7,500."

OP
This sequence given here for 2001–2028, follows a 28-year cycle from March 1, 1900 to February 28, 2100.
The months with a Friday the 13th are determined by G, F, GF, etc. of the year.
Every month that begins on a Sunday will contain a Friday the 13th,
and there is at least one Friday the 13th in every calendar year.
The longest period that can occur without a Friday the 13th is fourteen months,
either from July to September the following common year (e.g. between 2001–02, 2012–13, and 2018–19),
or from August to October the following leap year (e.g. between 1999–2000 or 2027–28).
Friday the 13th can occur as many as three times in a single year;
either in February, March and November in an ordinary year (such as 2009),
or January, April and July in leap years (such as 2012).
