Meena and Ritu were going home after playing hopscotch. “Come on, come to my house,” pleaded Meena, pulling Ritu by the hand. “Is your uncle at home? If he is, I will not come,” Ritu answered. “But why do you say that? Uncle likes you. He was saying – bring your friend Ritu home and I will give both of you lots of chocolate.” Ritu pulled her hand away from Meena saying, “I am scared of your Uncle. I do not like it when he even touches my hand.” Saying this, Ritu went home. |
What else can be done when such things happen? Discuss.
