The Polar Bear

POLAR BEAR CUB: Mum, am I a real polar bear?
POLAR BEAR MOTHER: Yes, dear, of course you are.
POLAR BEAR CUB: Really?
POLAR BEAR MOTHER: Yes, son. I’m a polar bear. Your dad’s a polar bear. Your grandparents are polar bears. Your sisters are polar bears. Your brothers are polar bears.
POLAR BEAR CUB: I know that, mum. But am I a real polar bear?
POLAR BEAR MOTHER: Of course you are. Be quiet and eat your fish.
POLAR BEAR CUB: But I’m not a polar bear, I’m sure.
POLAR BEAR MOTHER: Listen to me. You are a real polar bear. Why do you ask the same question again and again?
POLAR BEAR CUB: Because I’m freezing!
