I was tired and hungry after a long day of work.
When I walked into the living room, my 12-year-old son
36 up at me and said,“I love you.”I didn't know what to say. For several
37 all I could do was to
38 there and looked down at him.My first thought was that he must need
39 with his homework or he was trying to
40 me for some news.
Finally I asked,“What was that all about?”
“Nothing,”he said.“My teacher said we should
41 our parents that we love them and see what they say.It is
42 .”
The next day I called his teacher to find out more about this “experiment”and how the other parents had
43 “Most of the fathers had the
44 reacting（反應(yīng)）as you did ,”the teacher said.“When I first
45we try this , I asked the children what they thought their parents would say . Some of them thought their parents would have heart trouble.“The
46 is,”the teacher explained, “feeling loved is an important part of
47.It is something all people
48 .What I'm trying to tell the children is that it's too
49 we don't all express those feelings.A boy should be
50 to tell his dad he loves him.”
The teacher, a middle-aged man , understands how
51 it is for some of us to say the things that would be good for us to say.
When my son came to me that evening ,I held on to(抱著)him for
52 second.And just before he
53 away, I said in my deepest, most manly(男子氣慨)voice,“Hey, I love you ,too.”
I don't know if saying that made either of us healthier, but it did feel pretty good(感覺很好)，Maybe next time one of my children said“I love you”，it wouldn't take me a whole
54 to think of the right
55 .
