Do any of the pics show sadness? do any of the pics show the children looking at the ground?Apart from the last one you posted, they don't say anything about flight, kite's or much else. A kid sitting on the ground holding a spool of red thread says nothing more than a kid sitting on the ground holding a spool of red thread. Shooting the last one wide was the only shot you should have posted. The others all lack content.

The pics show the JOY which is the feeling you get when you successfully get and hold a kite in flight
I know that feeling.....
My pics are study of those faces
My words from the first pic>>>... a study of what simple joy flying a kite can bring
I don't know about you but I find the faces of people flying kites more appealing than the kites

You portrayed these shots as something to do with kites and children.
That didn't come across. Implying that the viewers are deficient if the images don't speak to them as they do to you is a bit solipsistic, I think.
More likely is that you are projecting your feelings too strongly onto the images.
is it not your feelings for the image the reason you shot it in the first place?
You don't shoot for the compliments of others when you are on your trips?
You shoot your pics because the scene touched a nerve
whether I successfully conveyed it or not is immaterial in the whole scheme of things, the only bit that would change if the chance to shoot Kite fliers again presented itself to me
would be that I would shoot a couple of close ups of the kites themselves
I am sorry that that the viewers who saw them on the forum saw no value in them
