Parents want their children to do nothing but
righteousness. School teachers are constantly talking about what is good and what is bad. But not every teacher will say that sometimes you have to sacrifice something for a good cause. By doing so, you can become guilty as a result. How and why this is possible, read in our very instructive story from life today.
Parents 12-year-old Anton taught him to be an obedient boy. They wanted their son to grow up to be a well-educated person who was ready to help. The child listened to the wisdom of his father and mother, diligently studied. However, sometimes he was in the clouds and distracted by all sorts of small things. For example, he was constantly late for school, which caused teachers to scold him.
Constant remarks bothered Anton. One day he decided to pull himself together and come to class on time. He even left the house earlier. But on the way to one of the pedestrian crossings right in front of him, a woman fell to the ground. She screamed, grabbing her leg.
Young Anton immediately ran to a stranger and offered his help. He helped her get up and cross the road. Then he ran to the nearest coffee shop (because she was nearby) and asked for some ice. Upon entering the street, Anton noticed that the stranger was still sitting by the road. And people pass by her, completely ignoring her. The boy was the only person who volunteered to help her.
The woman put ice on her leg and asked, “What is your name, my savior?” The young man replied timidly, Anton. But my friends call me Toshka. I'm in that school over there.” Anton pointed towards a large yellow building, which was only a few minutes away.
The stranger once again thanked the boy and called a taxi to get to the emergency room. Anton ran to school, realizing he would be late for class again. When the boy entered the classroom, Alexander Sergeevich was ready to scold him: “Kursilev, you’re late again!” Well, with you, we'll start the homework check.
Anton wanted to explain: “Sorry, I didn’t mean to.” I was late because ...” But the strict teacher wouldn't listen to anything: "I'm not interested in your excuses." Get to the board! After the lesson, Alexander Sergeyevich summoned Anton to him and said: Anton, it is time for you to become more responsible! Otherwise, I'll have to call your parents to school. I'm putting you on duty all week!
The young student did not want to stay all week after school and clean the classroom. But there was no other way out because the teacher didn't want to listen to his excuses. The following day, however, gave Anton a pleasant surprise. At the lesson, which was again led by Alexander Sergeevich, the headmaster of the school entered the class.
Anton's soul went to the heels: the boy thought that now he would be chastised in front of all his classmates. But that didn't happen. On the contrary, the principal illuminated the whole class with a smile and approached the board.
Then he said, “Guys, I have come to you with good news!” Yesterday, your classmate Anton Kursilev made a real feat. On his way to school, he helped a woman who was in trouble. She came to our school this morning and offered her help. Anna Nikolaevna will be our sponsor. We will be renovating our sports ground soon!
Classmates screamed with joy and congratulated Anton with stormy applause. And after class, his teacher came up to him and said, "Anton, were you late yesterday because you were helping that woman?" The boy shook his head silently.
"Oh, I'm sorry, buddy!" I was wrong! I should have listened to you before I came to any conclusions. As you can see, adults don’t always do the right thing. Alexander Sergeyevich extended his hand to Anton in a sign of reconciliation. The disciple shook her timidly, and inside him everything shrank with joy.
From the editorial board, this instructive story says a lot. No matter what the child does, you need to listen. You cannot draw conclusions based on the past experience of your student.
Secondly, good and right actions should be done from the heart. It is very important that both adults and children act according to their conscience, and not for any fee. In the case of young Anton, this is exactly what happened. I wonder what thought this story gave you?
