Idiom for the Day
……cry wolf...……
The first time you cry wolf you will probably get some help from concerned citizens. These same people will probably help you a second time, but the third time, like the boy in the original story, you probably won’t get any help. Hopefully, you won’t need any help the third time like the boy in the story. When you cry wolf, you ask for help or suggest that you need help when you don’t. People quit responding to people who cry wolf or ask for help when they don’t need it.
