Self discipline

Mother was proud of Ethan's self discipline. Recently, he likes to play his mini computer and everyday you can see him sitting on the chair and playing it for few hours. Mother doesn't like him to be too absorbed in it. Then one day mother asked him to come over when mother spot him wanted to start again. Mother told him that mother doesn't like him to play the mini computer for many hours because it is no good to the eye since the screen is too small. Mother asked him to promise mother not to play it and we crossed our fingers with each other. Surprisingly to mother, he really did not touch and went to that place for the whole evening.

Next day, he asked for mother's permission to play the mini computer again but mother did not allow. This time he knew how to argue back by saying: " I did not play it yesterday as per promise". Even he was saying that but mother still restricted him. He did not wail and throw tantrum instead he sat beside mother and waited for daddy to came back home from work...

Sometimes mother was really glad that he can change his habit and self control himself for not doing something, like watching TV.
