A man came home from work late, tired and irritated, to find his 5-year- old son waiting for him at the door.
“Daddy, may I ask you a question?” “Yeah sure, what is it?” replied the man. “Daddy, how much do you make an hour?” “That’s none of your business. Why do you ask such a thing?” the man said angrily. “I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you make an hour?” asked the little boy. “If you must know, I make $20 an hour.” “Oh,” the little boy replied, with his head down. Looking up, he said, “Daddy, may I borrow $10?”
The father was furious, “If the only reason you asked that is so you can borrow some money to buy a toy or some other rubbish, then you go straight to your room and go to bed. Think about why you are so selfish.
The little boy went to his room without any words and shut the door. The man sat down and started to get even angrier about the little boy’s questions. How can he ask such questions only to get some money? After about an hour or so, the man calmed down, and started to think: Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $10 and he really didn’t ask for money very often.
The man went to the door of the little boy’s room and opened the door.
“Are you asleep, son?” He asked. “No daddy, I’m awake,” replied the boy. “I’ve been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you just now,” said the man, “Here’s the $10 you asked for.”
The little boy sat straight up, smiling. “Oh, thank you daddy!” He said happily. Then, the boy took out some coins. When the man saw that the boy already had money, started to get angry again. The little boy slowly counted out his money, then looked up at his father.
“Why do you want more money if you already have some?” the father asked angrily
“Because I didn’t have enough, but now I do,” the little boy replied. “Daddy, I have $20 now. Can I buy an hour of your time? Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you.”
