New Sandals

My 12-year-old son is very active and loves playing outside with his friends every day. No matter the weather, he always wears sandals when going out, enjoying his time running, jumping, and exploring the outdoors freely.

That's why his sandals often break. He buys a new pair every two months. I know the sandals typically last 6 to 8 months with normal use, but with his constant outdoor activity, they just can't hold up that long.

I often tell my son to wear shoes when playing soccer, but he refuses. He says the game is just informal with his friends, so there's no need for shoes, and sandals are fine for him.

I rode to the store, just five minutes from my home. There were various types of sandals available, but he immediately chose the blue ones, his favorite color, and seemed happy with his choice.

They are made of rubber and very strong. I tell my son not to run in his sandals so they will last longer, but he loves playing actively, making it hard for him to follow my advice.

The price is not expensive, around two dollars. It's reasonable that the sandals will break in two months. However, my son was very happy with his new sandals, excited to wear them and continue playing outside with his friends as usual.

New sandals bring new spirit to go out, play around, and do many things. In the end, I let my son do what he wants, allowing him to socialize and enjoy time with his friends.
