The Link To Courage
Join Jack on an enlightening journey at the grocery store where he discovers the value of wisdom and the courage to understand his family's situation with food assistance.
Jack loved going to the grocery store with his mom. One day, while they were shopping, he noticed his mom using a special card at the checkout. Jack was curious and learned it was a Link card, which helped them buy food. He felt confused about why they needed it and worried it meant something was wrong. Jack wondered, "Why do we need the Link card, Mom?"
As they walked through the aisles, Jack worried about what his friends might think if they knew. He felt a bit embarrassed and didn't want anyone to find out. - I don't want my friends to know, Jack whispered to his mom. She assured him that everyone needs help sometimes, and it was nothing to be ashamed of. But Jack still felt unsure.
Later, Jack saw his friend Tom at the store. He quickly turned away, hoping Tom wouldn't see the Link card. Jack felt like he was carrying a big secret. - Why are you hiding from Tom? his mom asked. Jack explained, "I don't want him to see the card." He felt like he was failing to be brave.
At home, Jack sat in his room, feeling defeated. He thought maybe it was better to never go to the store again. - I can't face Tom, he sighed. His mom came in and sat beside him, understanding his worries. She said, "It's okay to feel this way, but we can face it together."
The next day, Jack's mom told him about the Link card's purpose. - It's like a superhero card that helps us get all the food we need, she explained. Jack realized it was a tool for keeping them healthy and strong. His mom's words made him feel better, and he started to see the card differently. "So it's good for us?" Jack asked, smiling.
Back at the store, Jack felt more confident. He helped his mom pick out healthy foods and even spotted Tom again. This time, he wasn't afraid to wave. - Hi, Tom! he called out with a grin. Jack understood that there was no shame in needing help and felt proud of his family's courage.
