儿女的暑假生活(III)--儿子的跆拳道

一个月的free lesson快结束了，教练找老爸摊派：“Your son is good, not a white belt level.I evaluated him and he should be between brown and red belt. So I amgoing to give him a brown belt. His attention span is excellent, and hefollows instruction very well. Within one year, he should reach blackbelt.”

老爸当然知道俺这猫崽的唯一本事就是addictive。和老爸网恋一样，只要迷上了，雷打不动。这两年练中国功夫的功底和入迷程度，老爸就知道他会很快上手。

瞧，就是钱了： 一年１千５百的银子，老爸又少了不知多少瓶酒了。回家的路上，儿子嘴都合不上了：“Dad, I can't wait until I get my brown belt. Would you please let me continue?”

鱼儿终于咬钩了，岂能放过：“Ok, I will discuss with your mom tonight. However, whatare the purposes of learning Tae Kwan Do? Is it for self-control,self-motivation and self-discipline. So you have to show me you arepaying the same amount of attention to your piano lesson, and  to yourhome work from your school. I warn you that you are going to have a lotof home work from your new school.”


“I know, I promise。。。。。”

（老爸希望儿子能有一项运动能一直练下去。和教练谈了，到黑带容易，没有基础两年功夫就成。但黑带里面还分级，从一级到二级要一年，到三级四极，至少两年。看样子，这个有希望磨练一下儿子的耐心了。找到一个儿子喜欢的运动不容易，而一个能系统训练孩子的运动就更难。看样子，有希望搞定一项了。）
