When will the young people learn to be kind? ”Hearing this, some boys started laughing, smiling at the old woman who lived her life and had nothing to do on the roads, that they paid the ticket and -They are going to give her place. But one girl gave her the place, and the boys said with contempt: "Too much respect leads to nothing good."
