It's Just For You

Teddy (2nd grade) was walking in the dirt next to the new sidewalk.

MR. BOWERS: Teddy! What are you doing? Why aren't you using the sidewalk?
TEDDY: I don't know.
MR. BOWERS: Don't you remember those guys building the sidewalk earlier this year? Remember, they had that big tractor and everything?
TEDDY: Oh, yeah!
MR. BOWERS: Well, they built that sidewalk for you! Do you want me to call them and tell them that you aren't using it?
TEDDY: No!
MR. BOWERS: They would be so mad, they would CRUSH you with their tractor! So where are you going to walk from now on?
TEDDY: The sidewalk!
MR. BOWERS: Good job!
