Read the following passage:I had been reaching for the wrong things all along. I thought my family wanted nice cars and private schools. I thought they expected me to provide these for them. I told myself it was O.K. to make up for "quantity time" by forcing in some "quality time" with an expensive vacation. But they missed me. You know, a hundred bedtime stories are worth more than a week in Cancun with a father who's passed out from exhaustion.What is most likely the purpose of the passage? A.To caution against spending time and money foolishly B.To show that you can't make everyone happy all the time C.To illustrate that one can't put a price on health and happiness D.To teach that it's the little things in life that count

Answer:

D.To teach that it's the little things in life that count.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this passage, we encounter a father who works hard to provide for his family. The family enjoys nice cars, private schools and expensive holidays. However, what they do not have is quality time with the father. The father tells us that he realizes now that money cannot buy happiness or quality time, and that he has been foolish in thinking that money is more important than this. He has now learned that it is the little things, such as bedtime stories, that count in life.
