A ten years old child's mother took him to a psychologist and alleged "I don’t understand this child he never listens to me" Psychologist repeated her words, "you don’t understand him because he never listens to you, right?" Mother retorted "that is right" the psychologist repeated again the same question "you don't understand him only because he never listens to you, right?" A visibly irate mother scowled at the psychologist “Why are you repeating the same question again and again?” The psychologist calmly replied: "I thought to understand someone you have to listen to them"

Then embarrassed mother responded "Oh I understand now"
