One day, a boy named Tim was playing outside. He saw a rake and leaves scattered all around. Tim thought it would be fun to scatter the leaves even more. He ran and kicked the leaves, laughing as they flew in the air.
Tim's mom saw him playing and said, "Tim, don't be stupid. Use the rake to gather the leaves, not scatter them." Tim didn't listen and kept kicking the leaves. His mom shook her head and went back inside.
Later, Tim's friends came over to play. They saw the mess of leaves and didn't want to play in the yard. Tim felt sad and realized he should have listened to his mom. He picked up the rake and started gathering the leaves. His friends saw him and helped. Soon, the yard was clean, and they all played happily together.
The moral of the story is to listen to the advice of others and not be stubborn.
