因为孩子知道。巴比。路易斯住在意大利的米兰市。在一个阳光明媚的周末午后,巴比。路易斯决定带着他的两个儿子去打迷你高尔夫球。他走向售票柜台问道:一张门票多少钱。大人1000里拉,6岁以上的小孩也要1000里拉,刚好6岁或小于6岁的小孩免费,你的两个孩子几岁了。年轻的售票小姐回答说。巴比答道:那个未来的律师3岁,另一个未来的医生7岁,所以,我想我得付2000里拉。那位售票小姐笑道:嗨呀,先生,你是刚中了彩券还是发了横财。你只要告诉我较大的男孩6岁,就可以替自己省下1000里拉了,我又看不出他们有什么差别。巴比回答:你说得没错,你看不出有什么不同,但是孩子们知道那是不同的。教育哲理:孩子们知道诚实和撒谎是不同的,知道对和错是不同的。所以在孩子面前,父母做每一件事都应该慎重,因为孩子是知道评价和效仿的。美丽的种子经你的手中播种出去,最终会在孩子那里得到回报的。
