19. “A neighbor who proved kindness goes a long way”
My 10-year-old was riding his bike in our neighborhood this summer and wasn’t watching where he was going. He somehow managed to hit a parked car and break the tail light.
He was so scared but told us immediately. I walked him over to let our neighbor know (we’d never met before), and he and I together paid the $50 to replace the plastic. The neighbor was so kind about the whole thing.
Integrity is not dead. It’s important to teach our kids what to do when they think no one is watching. That’s important. And it’s vital to teach our kids to own their actions, regardless of potential consequences. © B***TacosAndKnitting / Reddit
