Although a matter may be considered trivial, but if it is wrong to do it or unfair to the other person, do not do it thinking it will bear little or no consequence. If you do, you are not being a dutiful child because parents do not want to see their child doing things that are irrational or illegal.
事雖小。勿擅為。茍擅為。子道虧。
Even though an object may be small, do not hoard it. If you do, your parents will be heartbroken.
物雖小。勿私藏。茍私藏。親心傷。
