A man came back home from work late, tired, to find his six-year-old son waiting for him at the door.

“Daddy, how much money do you make an hour?”

“If you want to know, I make $20 an hour.”

“Oh,” the little boy replied, with his head down. He thought for a moment, looked up and said, “Daddy, could you lend me $10?”

The father was furious, “If you asked for money to buy a toy or some other rubbish, then go straight to your room and think why you are being so selfish!”

The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. After about an hour or so, the father calmed down, and started to think, “Maybe he really needs to buy something and he didn’t ask for money very often.” So he went to the little boy’s room.

“Sorry! Maybe I was too hard on you just now,” said the man. “Here’s $10.”

“Oh, thank you, Daddy!” the boy said gladly. Then, the boy took out some coins. When the father found that the boy already had some money, he got angry again.

“Why do you want more money since you already have some?” the father shouted angrily.

“Because I didn’t have enough, but now I do,” the little boy replied, “Daddy, I have $20 now. Can I buy an hour of your time? Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you.”

A man came home from work late, tired and unhappy, to find his 5-year-old son waiting for him at the door.

      The boy asked, "Daddy, how much do you make per hour?" The father was furious at his son's question.

   When he said $20 an hour, the little boy asked his father to lend $10 to him. The father was even angrier because he thought the boy just wanted some money to buy a toy. So he didn't answer his son.

      The little boy quietly went to his room. After about an hour or so, the man calmed down and started to think: Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $10.

       "Maybe I was too hard on you just now," the man went into the room and said. "Here's the $10 you asked for." 

       "Oh, thank you, Daddy!" He said. Then, he reached under his pillow, pulled out some crumpled coins and said, "Daddy, I have $20 now. Can I buy an hour of your time? Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you."
