- The Best
son: are you happy that i pass my test?
dad: yes.
son: if i fail will you be sad?
dad: no, i'll still be proud of you because you've already done your best.
son: what if i didn't try my best and i still pass? will you still be proud of me?
dad: then you won't pass.
son: why?
dad: because if you don't try your best, you're not concentrating.
The following conversation was overheard by me while I was at the pool on Sunday. This must be the most honest thing that I've heard a parent say to their kid for a very long time. It's not too picture perfect, yet isn't so brutally honest that it'll send the kid into some kinda dizzy spell.
It also occurred to me that kids are getting so much smarter nowadays.
