My short, boring story...

Original story
My kids wanted a cat. I agreed.  I got one, his name is Tiger, and he is a unique pet.

Student Question (there were almost 20 and this was the one I chose)
"How did your kids persuade you?"

Revision
Every day, from sunrise to late at night, my whiny children pleaded, begged for a pet.  I mechanically responded, "no."  Eventually, as they probably expected, I wore down.  The constant pleas finally broke me until I too believed I desperately needed an animal in my already crowded apartment.
