Stick To Your Decisions

Many people make decisions and do not stick to them.

During our Bali Trip, Ace had a chance to learn this lesson.

Waigong bought some durians and kept them in the fridge. When Ace got home, he kept asking to open the fridge... when refused, he made lots of whiny noises and finally after dinner, they decided to open the door of the fridge and take out the wonderous durians..

Ace quickly ran to the door of the fridge and refused to close the door even after Ah Yee took out the durians.

"Ace, we are going to eat the durians now.." Ah Yee told him.

"我不要吃榴莲。我要吃chocholate.." He replied.

"你真的不要吃榴莲?真的要吃chocholate?" Ah Yee reconfirmed with him..

"我不要吃榴莲。我要吃chocholate.." He insisted...

"你真的不要榴莲?真的要吃chocholate?" Ah Yee double confirmed with him...

"我不要吃榴莲。我要吃chocholate.." Ace persisted.

So they gave him a chocholate..

And right after he finished eating his chocolate, he burst into tears.."我要吃榴莲!!!!!!!"

Initially Ah Yee didn't want to give him to teach him a lesson.. But in the end, they still gave in... so Ah Yee told him, "Ace, you cannot say u dun want durian then later say u want again. we must always do what we say and say what we do... cannot 反悔 ..."

"SO what did he say to that?" I asked Ah Yee when she told me the story..

"He say ok lor.. Cos by that time he happily eating durian le mah... so anything also ok, "Ah Yee said.

I repeated to Ace that he must be responsible for his own decisions. Everyone is repsonsible for their own life and their decisions.. not always will he get a chance to change his decision and still get what he wants...
