Wake up parents!

Here is a story send by one of my friends V.Binumon.
        One day the teacher from a  Primary School asks her students to write an essay about what they would like God to do for them...if he appeared!

At the end of the day while marking the essays, she read one that made her very emotional.

         Her husband, who had just walked in saw her crying and asked her: - "What happened dear?"
She answered - "Read this. It's one of my student’s essay…" He took the essay from her hand and started reading.
“Oh God, tonight I ask you something very special:

Make me into a television. I want to take its place. Live like the TV in my house!

Have my own special place, and have my family around ME. To be taken seriously when I talk....

         I want to be the centre of attention and be heard without interruptions or questions. I want to receive the same special care that the TV receives when it is not working. Have the company of my dad when he arrives home from work, even when he is tired!

And I want my mom to want me when she is sad and upset, instead of ignoring me... And...

        I want my brothers  and sister to fight to be with me... I want to feel that family just leaves everything aside, every now and then, just to spend some time with me!
Lord I don't ask you for much... "I just want to live like a television!!"

       At that moment the husband too became emotional and said: - 'My God, poor kid! What  horrible parents he has!The child is feeling lonely!

She looked up at him and said:  Darling,you are right.

'That essay is written by our son!!!
Dear friends Ponder over!
