| A poor boy became a rich and famous singer. He married and had two sons and two daughters. One day he said to his wife, "Our children mustn't have a hard life as we had. We must help them more than our parents helped us." The wife agreed. So they sent their children to fine schools. They enjoyed expensive sports. They were given everything in life except this: they were not taught how to work. Later the parents bought businesses for their children. The sons, at 21, became the owners of banks. The girls were given shops. But soon all these businesses failed. Because the young owners knew nothing of business or of work. |
