Twelve and not stupid by Zuraidah Omar

Based on the story, I really think that the family is wonderful and loyal to each other. At first, I thought that her father were having affairs with Auntie May and doesn’t want her mother to know but it was all wrong. His father is very noble to help Auntie May that having some problem with his husband that she never sees for quite some month. Although he is kind and want to help people, he shouldn’t hide from his wife. He should actually share and try to explain what is exactly happens. If he tries to hide things from his wife, it will probably turn into some gossip or rumors that can make their own relationship distant. As a couple, we should learn not to hide any problem or difficulties from your couple and learn to share. Our behavior will reflect back to our child. If we acting that way, the child will be confuse with their parents and so many questions will play in their mind. There are many moral values that can be found in the short story that we can take as a lesson in the future. Another example is regarding the Auntie May’s husband. He shouldn’t neglect his own wife and not seeing them for more than a month. He has a responsibility towards his wife and their own son. I felt sorry that boy that grows up without his father on his side to guide him and love him. An action should be taken towards his husband as it is not a small matter. After reading throughout this whole story, I always wonder what my life would be in the future after got marry. This is truly a lesson that everyone should take.
