The Pink Little Boy
In the suburbs of Scotland, a young boy named Sam faces challenges and misunderstandings for his love of pink. While he struggles with societal expectations and judgments, Sam learns the value of tolerance and self-acceptance.
Sam loved pink. He wore pink shirts, pink shoes, and even carried a pink purse. But some people in town didn’t understand. They would whisper and point, making him feel sad. Sam’s mom Helen noticed and felt worried.
One day, Sam wanted to visit the park. He was excited to show off his new pink shoes. But when he got there, some kids started laughing at him. Sam felt his heart sink.
The next day at school, Sam brought his favorite doll. He hoped his friends would like it too. But instead, they made fun of him and called him names. Sam felt tears in his eyes.
Sam decided to stop wearing pink. He put away his pink clothes and dolls. ‘Maybe they’re right,’ he thought. ‘Maybe I shouldn’t like pink.’ But deep down, Sam felt very sad.
Helen noticed Sam’s sadness and decided to talk to him. ‘Sam, what’s wrong?’ she asked. Sam told her everything. Helen hugged him and said, ‘It’s okay to be different. You should love what makes you happy.’ Sam felt a bit better.
The next day, Sam wore his pink clothes again. He held his head high and went to the park. When the kids laughed, Sam said, ‘I like pink because it makes me happy.’ Slowly, the kids stopped laughing and started to understand. Sam smiled.
