 In the
Haggadah we tell the story of four sons who attended the seder. The wise
son was like Max, who asked lots of questions and wanted to know
everything. We are told to explain every last detail to him. The second
son is bored and cynical: all he is asks is Why do you do all these
strange things? We answer him sharply and say that this is why God took us
out of Egypt. The third son is interested but he doesn’t really know
what’s going on. The Haggadah says that we should explain the seder to
him in a way that he can understand. The last son is too young to even ask
any questions. We are told to encourage him to participate. Finally, no
matter which son (or daughter) you are, everyone has a place at the seder.
