This story reminds me of the time when I asked my mom if I could go to the mall with my friend but she said no. I felt said and upset because I promise my friend that I would go. It was also his birthday. Then when I told my friend about it, he felt upset and sad as well .. Everyone that he invited to come did not have permission from their parents to go. I felt so sorry for him that as soon as my parents left I went to the mall with my friend. I went to the mall with my friend because sometimes disobeying an order could be the right thing to do. Even though my mom said I wasn't allowed to go that didn't stop me from not thinking about how my friend felt. I should be thankful that I have friends, because not everybody in the world has friends. I also went to the mall with my friend because I wanted my friend to know that I am ALWAYS there for him no matter how tough times could be. And who would want a birthday party without ANYONE of your friends attending ? I would be really sad if no one attended my birthday party .
When I arrived home I realized that I had 23 missed calls on my cellphone. My mom came back from work a couple more minutes later. She gave me a LONG lecture about 'Safety' After the lecture I explained why I went, my mother understood why. Just how Jimmy's mom understood Jimmy.

Fantastic retelling of your blog :D It was also very similar to The Nest which made it interesting. I agree ... who would want to be alone on their birthday? It was good of you to go and be a friend. I also agree with the fact that sometimes people disobey rules to do the right thing, you just have to be careful and choose wisely of your decisions. Great Job!!

Good blog Ryan! If I were to go to the mall I probably would have been slapped by my parents. But at least your Mom understood why you went and was semi-OK about it. I made up some excuse like I fell asleep or I was in the Washroom.
ReplyDeleteFantastic blog Ryan! Whether I wanted to or not, my mother would never let me go to the mall unless there was a grown up with us. I agree with you that sometimes disobeying the rules could be the right thing to do. You had really good relating skills in this blog.
