I was tired and hungry after a long day of work. When I walked into the living-room, my 12-year-old son looked up at me and said, “I  31  you.” I did not know  32  to say, and I just stood there, looking  33 at him. My first thought was that he must need help with his homework. Then I asked, “What was that all about ?” “Nothing,” he said, “My teacher said we should tell our parents we love them and see what they say.”
The next day I called his teacher to  34  more about what my son said and how the other parents had reacted﹡. “Most of the fathers had the  35  response﹡ as you did,” the teacher said, ”When I first suggested ﹡that we try this, I asked the children what they thought their parents would say. Some of them thought their parents would be surprised.”
Then the teacher explained , “ I want my students to know that feeling love is an important part of  36  . I’m trying to tell them it’s too bad that we don’t express﹡ our feelings. A boy  37 tell his parents he loves them.” The teacher understands that sometimes it is  38  for some of us to say something .
That evening when my son came to me, I took him in my arms and held on for a while, saying, “Hey, I love you,  39  .” I don’t know if saying that made either of us healthier,   40   I did feel pretty good.

“I don’t like my parents. They __36▲_ tell me I should do this, and I should not do that. It sometimes makes me angry.” Said Hang Hua, a middle school student in Nanjing. Do you have the same _37▲__? Why does it seem that some parents are so __38▲__ in their children’s eyes?

Since(自从……以来) you were born, your parents have worried about everything about you. They __39▲__ about your choice(选择) of friends, the food you eat, your work at school, __40▲__ sleep you get, etc. All these things are part of your life. They want you to grow up __41▲__ and happily.

So how can you __42▲__ things easier on yourself? It’s easier __43▲__ you think. Just let your parents know what you’re doing. Get them to know your friends. Call them if you stay somewhere else __44▲__ than usual. Say __45▲__ to them when you are wrong. Take responsibility(责任) for what you have done. Talk about your ideas with them. They may talk about __46▲__ with you. Most of all, try __47▲__ them. They are still __48▲__ being parents and need your help, too. Someday, when you become a parent, they may give you __49▲__ on how to get on with your __50▲__.
