learn to listen

A mother asked her 5-year-old son, "When you and your mom are going to play together, then we are thirsty but there is no water, and by chance in your little purse there are 2 apples, what are you going to do?"

The boy thought for a moment, then answered steadily, "I'll bite both apples."

Hearing the answer of the child, his mother was disappointed. Initially he thought to immediately teach his son about what should be done, but the mother paused and tried to be patient.

Then the mother said gently while caressing her child's pity, "Can you tell me why, why are you doing that?"

The child replied innocently, as his eyes shone brightly. "Because…. because I want to give a sweet apple to mama. "
Upon hearing it, the mother's heart was touched. Without feeling, tears falling down his cheeks.

Sometimes, in close / harmonious families, misunderstandings can arise. For that, what we need is patience and a willingness to thoroughly hear the explanations of our loved ones.
