Innocence With Awareness

Another small story:

A mother was leaving her child with her friend for a day.

She told her child to remember to thank the friend before coming away that evening.

The child returned home that evening and the mother asked her if she thanked the friend.

The child replied, "I didn't because when the other girl thanked her, she said, 'don't mention it'."

This is how children are! Of course, it is our duty to teach them basic things like gratitude etc., but I am trying to make you understand that we should not make children hypocrites. Let them understand the game and play it with awareness, with no ego, but only awareness. Give them the basic rules and intelligence to discriminate for themselves.
