A mother was reading a fairy tale to her daughter....

A mother was reading a fairy tale to her daughter...


"And then the princess found herself locked in a tower surrounded by a stinky moat with  crocodiles and a huge scary dragon guarding the door," read the mother, with her eyes wide and voice deep.

Then, she made a sad face and continued softly, "So, the poor princess waited and waited for her prince to come--"



"But, why was she waiting for the prince, mumma?!" asked the little girl, impatiently.

The mother added, "To come and save her, silly."

"But, mumma, why did she need a prince to save her?" the girl asked again.

 "Uhh... hmm..." the mother was at a loss of words.

The little girl said proudly, "If it were me, instead of waiting for years and years for a prince, I would have tamed the dragon and flew out of the window. I would have rescued myself."

She discarded the book and walked away, "This princess is stupid."

The mother whispered with a broad smile, "I guess it is time to rewrite the fairy tales."
