The Wooden bowl- Moral Story !!
The daughter-in-law and son kept tolerating all this for a day or two, but now they are getting annoyed with this work of their father. “We have to do something about them”, said the boy.
The daughter-in-law also nodded in yes and said, "After all, how long will we continue to spoil the enjoyment of our food because of them, and we cannot see things getting damaged like this."
The next day when it was time to eat, the son put an old table in the corner of the room, now the old father had to sit there alone and have his meal. Even a wooden bowl was given in place of their eating utensils, so that no more utensils could break.
The rest of the people used to sit and eat comfortably as before and when they occasionally looked at that old man, tears would appear in their eyes. Even after seeing this, the heart of the daughter-in-law does not melt, he would tell many things on their smallest mistake. The child sitting there also used to watch all this very carefully and was engrossed in himself.
One night before dinner, the little boy was seen by his parents sitting on the floor doing something, "What are you making?" The father asked, the child replied innocently - Hey, I am making a wooden bowl for you guys, so that when I grow up, you guys can eat in it.
And he got back to his work. But this thing had a deep impact on his parents, not a single word came out of their mouths and tears started flowing from their eyes. Both of them had understood without speaking that what they have to do now. That night he brought his aging father back to the dinner table, and never misbehaved with him again.
Education:-
Real education is not hidden in words but in our deeds. If we just keep on preaching to the children that respect elders… respect everyone… and behave opposite to it, then the child also learns to do the same. That's why never treat your parents in such a way that tomorrow your children also start preparing wooden bowls for you!
