3.Once,as I was getting ready for the school,my mother accidentally handed me my father's shirt instead of me.I was very upset that I violently ripped it apart!
That evening,my mother shared my father her own frustration:"See what your son had done."Instead of scolding me,my father calm asked my mother to sew up the shirt.He then wore it to works the next day.
When my mother told me about my fathers response late,I immediately felt ashamed,knowing that he was spending the entire day wearing a tearing shirt.At the same time,I was filled with great admiration for my father,who gentle kindness taught me a life lesson I would never forget.
