Parents make rules for good reasons, but a child doesn’t always see it that way.
This was true for Pinky, too. Pinky’s parents loved her dearly and taught her everything she had to know to be safe. But one day she made a new friend, who had all sorts of new and exciting ideas. When she didn’t want to go with Neo to the other side of the hedge, Neo teased her and called her a baby until she gave in and went with him, even though she knew she shouldn’t. And it wasn’t long before Neo himself was in trouble! Will Pinky be able to save him, or will she be too scared of a scolding?
This is a lovely story to remind children that rules are to keep them safe, but also that “A true friend will never expect you to break rules or to disobey your parents”.
