Fish for Thoughts

A conversation between me and my second son Ammar which took place during lunch earlier today.

M: Ammar, it's good if u can finish your food. As you know, wastage is bad kan.

A: Ya Mummy I know. I will eat all the rice and tofu, mmmm yummy.

M: What about the fish?

A: Errr... I will eat the fish. But, do I have to finish it?

M:  Of course. I thought you like fish? Eating fish can help your brains to become very clever tau.

A: Ok Ok. Mummy, tadi in school A punched my right eye. And B hit my tum-tums. Hurts a little bit.

M: Oh My! You sure they did that? Just a little friendly playing right?

A: Yah they did Mummy. You know why? They did not eat fish for their brains (points to head). That's why la.

M: OOoooppssssiee
