Caring enough to do what’s right
Two elementary schoolaged boys were talking on the playground during recess one of the first days of the new school year.The first boy complained, “If I forget to say‘Thank you’to my mom for supper, my dad sends me to my room. If I don’t do my chores when I am supposed to do them, my dad sends me to my room. If I am mean to my little sister, my dad sends me to my room. If I bring home a bad report card from school, my dad sends me to my room. If I am sassy to my grandma, my dad sends me to my room. It seems like all my dad ever does is send me to my room!”
