Let's cross the bridge when we come to it The whole family was having a get together that day at grandmother's house. Suddenly, Mary, the youngest granddaughter began to mourn. A great silence took over the dinner-room when almost all relatives asked her about those tears. Mary could hardly utter a word. "I should have studied more", she stated. Nobody knew what she was talking about, or maybe they did? The only one not surprised by Mary attitude was her father, Joseph, who had a special relationship with her daughter and kept track of Mary's outcomes at High School. Apparently, Mary had failed in one Maths test that week and, as a consequence, she would have to resit the exam again. Her last chance would be the following week so, her father calmly replied, "Perhaps we should stop talking about it and actually get on and do it, you must study more! Mary, I know you are out of your depth; however, there is no point in worrying about it now, uou must make the most out of this opportunity!" Joshep encouraged his daughter because he was aware that Mary could get through the whole Math term, as long as she passed the remedial exam. Finally, Joseph as father and advisor, said to his young daughter, "Mary do not cry and worry because we should cross that bridge when we come to it, and you at least have another opportunity" Mary dried her tears and smiled timidly.
