Sophia and Jackson were next-door neighbours; they used to play together all the time. One day, they decided to play a new game that required them to stay in their own yards and play through the divider in between. Sophia sat on one side and Jackson on the other and they started the game. Within a few minutes they started fighting. Loud yelling and name calling followed. Their mothers came out of their caves to check on them. Seeing them fighting, they asked, “What is the matter?” Sophia said, “Jackson is saying this green box is red!” “But, mom!” said Jackson, “it is really red; look!” pointing at the box. Both moms looked at each other, smiled, and told their kids, “Even if we are right, we shouldn’t insist that others are wrong! Look, the box is red from one side and green from the other side.”
