Like Mother like girl

This is the comic strip created by me! I named it "like mother like girl". In the first picture, I chose a background which looks like part of a playground. This background contributes to the fact that the they were having some outdoor activities and that the boy could have accidentally angered the girl . As you can see from the above, the girl is significantly larger than the boy; having the effect of her being angry and fiercer and the boy being frightened. In the speech bubble, the girl is shown to have used some vulgarities. In the background of the picture, the teacher-in-charge of the activity had witness the whole situation.
The second scene is about the teacher-in-charge speaking to the girl's mother about her misconduct during the activity. The background I used in this scene is an office, hopefully giving the impression that the girl is very playful and mischievous. The girl's mother is portrayed as a very demure lady. The girl's mother's phone was ringing, showing that she is about to answer the phone.
A demure lady should speak with politeness. However, upon hearing some bad news, the mother began to swear!
In other words, this comic strip is showing that parents have to set good examples and not telling the child what to do and they themselves practising none of them. In many times in our daily lives, we tend to face many irritating or annoying situations. Usually we would be annoyed with the person. However, it is the parents that are the responsible ones. Therefore, creating a good and considerate society starts with the parents.(:
