Why do they make wars?

Rowan: "Poppa, why do the make wars?"

Poppa: (pause) "That's a great question Row."

Rowan: "I don't like wars because people get killed."

Poppa: (pause) "Yes."

Rowan: "Why do they do that?"

Poppa: "You know when you and Khona want the same hippo stuffy."

Rowan: "Yess."

Poppa: "That's why."

Rowan: "What are other reasons?"

Poppa: "Well, sometimes, people fight over bigger things, like houses."

Rowan: "Can't they just get married?"

Poppa: (pause) "Yes."

Rowan: "What else?"

Poppa: "Sometimes, it's over bigger things like rivers or lakes."

Rowan: "Can't they just get in the same boat, and get along?"

Poppa: (pause) "Yes."

Rowan: "There are other ways to do it then wars. Right Poppa?"

Poppa: "Yes, Row. Yes there are."
