Oops!

The family went biking a couple of months ago.  Sammy crashed (mildly) into a post. 

Daddy said: “Oops!”. 

Big mistake.

Sammy: (crying) I almost died and all you say is “Oops!”?

Daddy: It wasn’t a big crash. You just bumped into a post.

Sammy: What if I kill myself and you will just say “Oops!”?   How about if you fall into a hole and die and I say “Oops”.  How would you feel?  How about if you are hungry and you have no food and you die and I say “Oops.”? 

And Sammy went on like that for several hours, giving example upon example.
