Billy is used to getting everything he wants. On his birthdays and at Christmas, his parents buy him many presents.
The only problem is that he never seems happy with what he receives. No matter how many gifts he gets, he always asks:
“Is that all?”
He constantly whines about not getting even more, and he struggles to show gratitude (thankfulness) for what he already has.
Discussion Questions
- Why do you think Billy acts this way? What causes someone to lose their sense of appreciation?
- How would you help someone like Billy? How can we learn to appreciate what we have without always wanting more?
