When I was younger my fear for geese was pretty big, they used to chase me all around street because my neighbors were letting them out on a "walk". Nowdays when I see them I just smile at them, see their beautiful feathers, their wing span that is probably 2m how they look at me and don't chase me at all. Reason why they chase us, when we were children, is because we used to run away from them so they saw as like we were prey.
I told that to my children when they were young too, I guess they didn't heard me what I was talking about because they used to come home crying because geese were chasing them too. I guess that is a part of our youth, learning things how to do and how not to.
