There was an old man, a boy, and a donkey. They were going to town and it was decided that the boy should ride. As they went along, they passed some people who thought that it was a shame for the boy to ride, and the man to walk. The man decided that the critics were right so they changed positions.
Soon they passed some more people that thought it was a shame for the man to make such a small boy walk, while the man rode. The two then decided that they would both walk, and on their way they went.
Again, they came upon another group of people who thought it was stupid for them to both walk when they had a donkey to carry them. So after thinking about it, they both decided to ride the donkey together.
Yet again, they passed more people, only these people thought it was a shame to put such a load on a poor animal. The old man and the boy, again decided the critics were right, so they decided to carry the donkey.
As they crossed a bridge, they lost their grip on the animal, and he fell into the river and drowned.
