A Child's Generosity

My son plays Pokemon and attended a local tournament. During the day one child became very upset as he did not do very well and had never had one of the best cards that all the other had. My son mentioned this to me and suggested that he go and talk to him about when he was new to the game. The two chatted for a while and then I noticed that my son had given him one of his special cards. I knew that it was a really precious card to him so asked what had made him part with it. He said that he had wanted to make the boy happy and not give up and although he liked the card a lot thought this boy needed it more. My son is 9 and although I would normally be cross at him giving things away thought this was a real act of kindness.
