After dinner today, Jackson gathered his pair of twin daughters in the study for their usual bonding time. His 8 years old learnt a new word in school today, - Obligation.

Jackson explained to them that An obligation is a duty, requirement, or moral imperative to do something, often binding one legally or through a promise, simply put we committed ourselves to do something thus we have an obligation. As his always teaches his daughters thar one must also try to honor our promises to others whenever that is legal and achievable.

An idea came to Jackson's mind when he glances at the calendar on the table and saw that Mother's Day is just a week away. He decided to show his daughters that we can allow one to have an obligation but by not doing anything.

How? They asked, well Jackson explained that Mom has been taking care of the family 365 days a year without complain. Thus on Mother's Day, we will handle all the tasks in the house, all mom has to do nothing but rest and enjoy.

As such, on Mother's Day, they pulled a banner that reads : " Mom, You have an obligation to do nothing today" in the living room. With that, the queen of the house simply sits on the sofa and enjoy her shows and snacks. Happy family.
