Read the story below.

Once upon a time, there was a man and a woman who had a
daughter who lived on the bank of a stream. The parents did not
teach her nice manners and never punished her for her faults. The
daughter would often laugh in her mother's face when she asked
her daughter to help cook the dinner or to wash the plates. As the
girl grew older; she would just spend her days dancing and playing
with her friends. She was very selfish, and her parents might as well
have had no daughter at all.
However, one morning her mother looked so tired that even
the selfish girl could not help but notice. She asked if there was
anything she was could do to do so that her mother might rest a
little. The good woman looked so surprised and grateful for this offer
that the girl felt rather ashamed. At that moment, the daughter
would have scrubbed down the whole house if she had been
requested. But her mother only asked her to take the fishing-net out
to the bank of the river and mend some holes in it because her
father intended to go fishing that night. When he came home, her
father was grateful for his new, unselfish daughter.
