Year 2030 Parenting

A Short Story By XBestoX

Car seats brought them to the entrance of their home. The seats flew back and started the locking protocol.

Mr Peter looked at the eyes of his wife and kid, theirs were as sad as his. Dried trails of tears were on princess' cheeks.

"Daddy, you told me. You told me that I should be myself, that everything will be alright. I trusted you." Princess ran inside crying. Her mother followed her.

Mr Peter had slapped the principal for touching his wife as he was sending them out of his office. The principal had kept Princess on her knees for hours before they arrived at the school.

Princess had been playing football with the boys of her class; the girls don't play ball. She had been telling her father – she told her father everything – how many people in school laughed at her and called her Girl-boy.

He didn't know what to say to her. That she should stop being herself? That people won't accept her for how she is? That hurt people hurt people? He couldn't promise her a happy childhood if she remained thesame.

"Mr. P sir, Your car is saying Princess forgot her school bag inside her," Philo-phone read out his phone's notification.
