1. Is it true that 7- or 8-year-old boys have the ability to deal with things independently? In fact, they can't say anything clearly, and they have no ability to cope with changes, but they are persistent and simple.

2.

Ahmed chose the latter, which is not only Ahmed's "responsibility" to his friends, but also a breakthrough A symbol of traditional social shackles. Abbas' mercy remains.
