A man bought a new car and he was very proud of it．One day, when he came back home, he saw his three-year-old son hitting the new car with a toy hammer(锤子)happily．He damaged the paint on the car．The man was so angry that he ran to his son, took the hammer away from him, and used the hammer to hit the little boy's hands as hard as he could for punishment．The poor boy cried out loudly but his father couldn't care．
When the father calmed down, he took his son to the hospital as fast as he could．Although he tried his best, the doctor had to cut the fingers off both of the boy's hands in the end．
When the boy woke up in the hospital and saw his hands, he innocently(天真的)said,“Daddy, I'm sorry about your car．”Then he asked,“But when are my fingers going to grow back?”The father felt very sad．
People make mistakes．We are also allowed to make mistakes．We often fail to see the differences between people and their actions．We forget that forgiveness(宽恕)is greater than argument．Think before you act!
