The Dilemma: Honesty vs. Kindness 😬
This family faced a tough choice when their favorite restaurant's food quality plummeted. After the owner confronted them, the mother decided to be honest about the reason for their absence. The owner didn't take it well, and now the family is left wondering if they should have lied to spare the owner's feelings. After all, they know the restaurant is struggling due to the pandemic. So, was honesty the best policy in this case, or should they have sugarcoated the truth? 🍽️🤷
