The Boy Who Was Never Disciplined
There was a family with only one son. The parents loved him so much and gave him everything he wanted. They never said no to him, even when he made bad decisions. They treated him like a king, and they always obeyed his orders.
One day, the boy decided to leave school. His parents didn’t stop him. Instead, they supported him. Over time, the boy started doing bad things. He drank beer, stole, fought, and even hurt others. But his parents defended him, no matter what he did. They protected him from punishment and hid his mistakes.
As the years passed, the boy became one of the most wanted criminals in the city. He committed terrible crimes like robbery, r**e, and murder. Eventually, the police caught him and sent him to prison.
After 20 years in prison, the boy was chosen to be executed along with four other dangerous criminals. The parents of all five criminals were invited to watch their sons say goodbye before they were executed.
When it was the boy’s turn, he called his parents to stand in front of him. He gave his father a crooked stick and said, “Make this stick straight.” His father tried to fix the stick, but it broke in the middle.
The boy looked at his parents and said, “You are too late to fix me now. If you had corrected me when I was young, I would not be here. Now, let me go. Goodbye.”
The boy was executed, leaving his parents heartbroken.
Moral of the story:
Discipline must start early in a child’s life. If parents ignore bad behavior when a child is young, it may be too late to correct them later.
