offend
When you offend someone, it’s like when you accidentally step on their favorite toy. They might feel hurt because their toy is special to them, just like some words or actions can be special to people. It’s important to be careful with what we say and do, so we don’t step on someone’s feelings.
Imagine words are like colors. Some colors are bright and make people feel happy, while others might be too dark and make someone feel sad. When we say something that is too dark, it can make someone feel bad inside, just like when we use too much black paint on a sunny picture.
Think of people’s feelings like bubbles. They are light and can float around, but if you poke them too hard, they might pop. When we offend someone, it’s like poking their bubble too hard. We should try to keep our words gentle, like a soft breeze, so their bubbles can stay up in the air and feel safe.
