Parents may need to learn something from their own children. |
‘Can I have a chocolate, ma?’ A girl’s asking her mom while walking with her mother at a mall. ‘Yes, but you must promise me that you’ll finish your homework as soon as you get home.’ Nanzy is the girl’s mother. ‘Uh-huh. I will. I promise you.’ The girl looks excited and walks hurriedly into a shop. When the girl arrives home, she does her homework as she promised. ‘Good job, Tam. I think next time you’ll have another chocolate when we’re at that mall again.’ The mother cheers up her daughter as usual. ‘Thanks ma.‘ Tam pauses a little bit before her next question, ‘What if I don’t have any homework, mom? So … it means I won’t be able to have a chocolate, then. That’s too bad!‘ Tam asks a question and she already has her answer answered. ‘Brilliant question, Tam. You know why I love you so much?‘ Tam is looking at her mother--showing her cute smile. ‘Because you always have a smart question and you often make me stop and think. There’s a lot of time, I must admit, I can’t answer that to you. And you will come up more and more question! That was why I love you so much.’ The mother has talked with her daughter within 10 minutes. Tam finally forgets what she asks and she walks and sits on the couch watching a cartoon. created by Peremptory Punctilious Polymath |
