|Respect the Elders|
One day, Kasi gave food in a clay plate for his father to eat. Being too old, Ramu was not able to hold the clay plate properly. He dropped it down and the clay plate broke off. Kasi became so much angry and scolded his father. Vasu observed this.
The next day , Kasi gave a new clay plate. He went to work. When he came back, he was angry to see the new clay plate also broken into pieces. He scolded his father badly and warned him, “Hey old man, if you break the next clay plate also, there will be no food for you and you have to leave the house”. Vasu was listening to his father’s words silently.
Next day, in the evening, he came back to home after his work. He saw his son Vasu doing some work with his carpentry tools. He became surprised to see this and happily he went near him, Kasi asked Vasu “ What are you doing my son?” Vasu replied “ Dad, I am making a wood plate for you. When you become old, I will give you this wood plate so that you will not break it and I do not have to send you out of the house”
Kasi realized his mistake on hearing his son’s words. He felt sorry for hurting his old ageed father. He apologised to his father for his mistakes and his angry words. Kasi, Vasu and his grandfather went into home to have a nice dinner together.
