When I was very young, my parents started teaching me to share.
When it was meal time, one of them would always ask "Would you share a bit of your food with me"?
I would happily share a bite, and they would say
"That was the best bite"!
That made me so angry, because I thought they literally meant, that I gave them the best bite of food off of my plate! If it was my food, I wanted the best bite!
