昨天和兒子坐下吃晚飯時,我告訴他:我和JACK通過電話,他說他應該有那種工具,他明天早上9點會帶工具過來。他還約了KEVIN下周一起過來,幫你看看是否還有其它問題需要解決,這款無人機可能存在兼容性的問題,或許可以留著以後練飛。我又說,在和JACK談工具問題前,我先問候了他,還問了他兒子的情況,這樣就把雙方的距離接近了,美國人管這種談正事前的談話叫SMALLT[

前天是兒子高中的OPENHOUSE夜。幾天前,我就和兒子說起此事,俺然把它當成個大事。這原於2020年是兒子升入高中的年份,可正值疫情,學校沒舉辦OPENHOUSE活動。此去,一是認識老師,二是得以了解兒子新的學習環境。“我要一起去嗎?”兒子當時問。他的問話讓我吃驚,放在以前,我讓他去,他肯定會躲,這次他倒是主動提及,看來上了高中的他真的變了---有動力,[

兒子在學校和什麽人交往我不是很清楚,但是自6年級開始,他老師給他的評語都是:有趣,和同學相處得很好。當初看到這時,我特別得興奮。孩子在校是否開心,是否感覺舒服應是父母的首要關注。在精神健康得到保證後,才應該考慮到學習。
而這一說法也得到了ROBIN,兒子在7-8年級時的SOCIALworker的證實。ROBIN是兒子小學時的SOCIALWORKERCURTIS推薦的。我想推薦的原因很[

昨天帶兒子去做15歲的體檢。醫生一進門,就微笑著自我介紹。他說他叫SCOTT,好像以前沒見過我們。但他已經在這家診所工作3-4年了,隻是平時他在醫院上班。SCOTT的上身和頭都方正,腿細長,頭發被剪成齊短硬挺的寸頭,與他的頭形配得剛剛好。從他幾乎全白的發色和隱約的瀉頂,我猜他65-70歲。總之,SCOTT給我的第一印象是位身材不高,但體態挺拔健碩,性格開朗的中老年白[
