Introduction to the lesson
Before you read
Here is a story about the worldview of a little child, and the difficult moral question she raises during the story session with her father.
The story revolves around Jack who is a father to two kids — Joanne (Jo) and Bobby. His wife Clare is carrying their third child. Jack had a habit of telling his daughter, Jo a story every evening and on Saturday afternoon naps. This time when he was telling her a story, she interrupts him and asks him questions whenever she feels that things that are being told are not right. So jack now finds himself in a fix and doesn’t know how to resolve Jo’s questions. Parents feel that children should do or think exactly what they are told. They should believe whatever they are told by their parents. But is this the right attitude. This moral question is raised by the story and left for the reader to decide what should be done.
