Would you rather hear the truth or hear the well packaged story?
Bringing it forward..
Would you rather tell the truth or make up a story?
So, the child was playing toys and there was no accidents/conflicts/fights/anything. The next moment the child decided to stop playing and read a book instead. So she selected a book and walked towards me with it and i notice this super long fresh scratch on her arm.
Where did the scratch come from?
Honestly, i don't know.
"So why can't we tell the truth to the parent?" I asked the tch ic of the month.
"我只知道发生什么是一定要向家长解释。不懂也要有个完整的说法, 不可以说不知道。"
The thing is, 要挑语病的话, 真的是没"发生什么事"啊。。
In the end, the explanation was child snatched toy from friend and scratched friend. While friend was getting the toy back, friend accidentally scratched child.
Wow. How amazing. Now it's the child's fault for getting hurt.
Dear parents, would you honestly be able to know exactly how your child has gotten every single cut/scratch/wound/injury? So, would it be too much of you to accept an answer from the teacher which may suggest "I don't know what happened"? Then, can there be pure honesty in such circumstances?
Well, if I am the parent.. ok, I may find it absurd that my child's teacher doesn't know where the super long cut comes from. But I think I would rather hear the truth than to have to counsel my child for something that isn't his fault at all.
If I am the teacher (who got to speak with the parent)... I would tell the truth.
Dear God, I am sure you know what happened. Can reply the scene for me please?
Actually dear God, if it's not too much to ask, bring me back to all of such circumstances please. Especially Isaac's case. I would like to respond differently. I would actually prefer preventing Isaac's fracture too. Thanks God!
