Once there was a boy named Jason. He was a smart and kind 5th grader who loved playing outside with his friends. But there was one thing Jason didn’t like to do—brush his teeth!
Every night, when his mother reminded him it was time to brush, Jason would run away. He thought brushing was boring and a waste of time. Instead, he would sneak off to his room and play video games late into the night.
One day, Jason woke up with a terrible toothache. The pain was so bad he couldn’t eat his favorite food or even smile properly. His mother took him to the dentist, who told him he had a cavity because he hadn’t been brushing his teeth properly.
Jason was really sad and wished he had listened to his mother about brushing. From that day on, he promised himself to brush his teeth every morning and evening.
After a few weeks of regular brushing, Jason’s toothache went away, and his smile became bright and healthy again. He learned that taking care of his teeth was important for both his health and happiness.
The moral of the story is: We should always listen to our parents and take care of our bodies, even if it means doing things we might not enjoy, like brushing our teeth. It’s important to stay healthy and happy!
