An Intelligent Child


To test the intelligence of his son, a father calls his son outside his house. No sooner had the son reached near his father than they heard a piercing  sound  faring out of the kitchen.
 
The father postulated his son, “Go to the kitchen and see who makes the utensils  fall down.”
 
The son instantly responded almost electrified without moving a step, “It is none else, father, but the mother.”
 
The father jeered at this and rebuked his son on being rude and disobedient. Angrily he inquired, “How come you know it is your mother only?”
 
“Had it been someone else, the mother could have shouted like a bull. Since there is no sound booming out of kitchen, it could be mother only and none else” the son countered.

The father outspreads his smile with a gratified expression.
