The parents were a little worried, as the son was still unable to decide about his future career. So they decided to do a small test. They put a note on the front hall table that they had left. Around the note they put a ten-dollar bill, a Bible, and a bottle of whiskey. Then they hid, pretending they were not at home. The father told his wife, &#8220;If our son takes the money, he will be a businessman, if he takes the Bible, he will be a pastor, but if he takes the bottle of whiskey, I&#8217;m afraid our son will be a no-good drunkard.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So the parents hid in the nearby closet and waited nervously. Peeping through the keyhole they saw their son arrive. The son read the note that they had left. Then he took the ten-dollar bill, looked at it against the light, and slid it in his pocket. After that, he took the Bible, flipped through it, and put it under his arm. Finally, he grabbed the bottle, opened it, and took an appreciative whiff to be assured of the quality. Then he left for his room, carrying all three items.<\/p>\n<p>The father slapped his forehead and said: &#8220;This is worse than I could ever have imagined!&#8221; &#8220;What?! asked the wife. &#8220;Our son is going to be a politician!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><em>Source: Unknown<\/em><\/p>\n<p><!--Creative Youth Ideas: Icebreakers Ahead--><\/p>\n<p><center><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.creativeyouthideas.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/0004_underline1_big-300x15.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"5\"><\/center><\/p>\n<h2>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.creativeicebreakers.com\/christian_icebreakers.html\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"floatimgleft alignleft\" style=\"border: 0px;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.creativeicebreakers.com\/icebreaker_book_cover_sm.jpg\" alt=\"Get Icebreakers ebook\" width=\"90\" height=\"150\" border=\"0\"><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.creativeicebreakers.com\/christian_icebreakers.html\"><span style=\"color: #cc0000;\"><strong>Icebreakers Ahead: Take It To the Next Level<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/h2>\n<p>This 170 page resource not only provides 52 of the world&#8217;s most popular group icebreaker activities and games, but also includes lesson ideas and discussion questions to smoothly transition into conversations about the issues common to most groups.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.CreativeIcebreakers.com\/christian_icebreakers.html\"><span style=\"color: #cc0000; font-weight:bold\">Click here to find out how to get your hands on this incredible resource!<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><center><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.creativeyouthideas.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/0004_underline1_big-300x15.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"5\"><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An older couple had a son, who was still living with them.
