Pampering Teenagers







Rich parents who were pampering their teenagers start thinking about changing their ways. They decided to show them tough love, so as to teach them to be responsible.

One of those parents held a party for his daughter Emma that costs fifty thousand dollars. In addition, he bought her a brand new car as a gift, despite having another one.

He noticed that by such behavior, his daughter became selfish, dependent and irresponsible. He decided to send her on a trip to a very poor country for two weeks.

Emma was forced to go, at first, she was facing a cultural shock and was feeling exiled. As a result, she was angry and refused to accustom to such life, then gradually she surrendered and started to embrace this different and tough life.

She stayed with a poor family that a girl like her age had to walk for four hours, so as to get water for her family. By acknowledging this situation she started to appreciate what she had at home.

When Emma went home, she became a different person; she got a job and decided to send some money – which she earned- to help that poor family.

She was thankful for their hospitality as well as for this whole experience.

Her rich parent is now proud of his daughter’s transformation and says it is never too late to adjust a certain behavior.
