While I was in the lift from carpark to shopping mall, the lift stopped at Ground Floor and there were a lot of people squeezing into the lift. There was a little girl who is at the age of about 7, who was being kind enough to help on pressing the open/close lift button at every floor the lift stopped.
I was so glad for this little girl as she knows about the manners of using the lift.
We should be helping others with the lift button other than letting the door to smash on them or letting the door close while others are having difficulty in going out or coming in.
Out of the sudden, the father with the sour face began to scold the little girl : "Don't press on the buttons. You Do Not work for the company! You are not the lift attendance!"
I stared straight to the father's face and was thinking that what kind of lessons were this mature adult trying to teach his innocent kids?
We should be teaching our children to do good and not teaching them to be selfish.
No wonder nowadays, the people around us are being very rude.
They do not queue, they throw rubbish everywhere, they trouble people by just thinking of their own convenient, they do not respect people and etc.
Parents are not portraying good examples to the young generations. How are the youngsters going to be thoughtful and polite whereas the parents are not giving them the right guidance?
