Cindy and Matthew are sister and brother. They both love watching tv when they are not doing homework or playing with their friends. One day Matthew was watching tv in the living when Cindy came in and changed the channel without asking. Matthew was in the middle of his favorite tv show, Henry Danger, but Cindy really wanted the tv because there was a new episode of Cupcake Wars on. Matthew and Cindy argued about who can watch tv when they were interrupted by their dad. Their dad told them they had to learn how to share. They wanted their dad to help them decide who could watch but he thought it was better for them to figure it out on their own. Cindy and Matthew were upset that they had to solve the issue on their own. They both really wanted to watch tv and did not want to give it up for the other person. Cindy sat down on the couch and held the remote in her hand. Matthew begged her to change the channel but she would not. They began arguing all over again until Matthew decided that he did not care anymore because he missed the entire episode anyway. Cindy felt bad that Matthew did not get to see his show, she knows that if it was her she would be really sad as well so she thought on a way where they both could watch their shows without interrupting the other. Cindy told Matthew her idea which was they could both record their shows and watch them at different times. They each had one hour to watch tv and then had to switch with the other person. This way everyone could watch what they wanted, whenever they had the time. After creating the plan, Matthew and Cindy never argued about who could watch tv after that and their dad was really proud of them for fixing the issue on their own.
