It was cold and pouring with rain, but the boy's mother insisted he go to the barn
and feed the animals before he could have breakfast.
The boy went out in a dark rage, kicked the chickens, punched the cow and threw water all
over the pigs.
When he got back inside his mother was furious.
"How dare you!" she fumed. "I saw what you did! You get no eggs because you kicked the chickens,
no milk because you thumped the cow and no bacon because of the way you treated the pigs."
Just then, dad came down the stairs and nearly tripping over the cat, he gave the animal a mighty kick.
The boy turned to his mother and said, "Are you going to tell him or shall I?"
and feed the animals before he could have breakfast.
