我常常会揶揄我那傻儿子: 当妈妈老了的时候, 是住在你家还是姐姐家呢? 如果你们的 wife or husband 不喜欢,妈妈还是自己住?
八岁时,儿子就说, 最好住在我的隔壁,我要给你买一个mansion.
并问我要几个 bathroom。
我说:妈妈一个人,一个厕所就够了嘛。
儿子却回答说:你还要开 party, 还有aunt (我姐姐)要来住,你需要三个厕所。
我问他:你哪儿有那么多钱呢?
他总是回答说:I will make big money, like one thousand, I will buy a mansion for you.. Sister will buy food for you!
那你长大了想干什么?
儿答到:I want be a police or FBI.
除了贝比时,儿子总把自己当成电视录像里的男主角:王子,Superman, 各路英雄好汉之外,Police or FBI 就一直是他崇拜的偶象,直到今天还没改变.
说起wife or husband, 我的一双宝里宝气的儿女有过如此的讨论:
儿子八岁, 女儿十三。
儿子:I don’t know if I will get married, I don’t have any girl likes me yet. I have a crush on a girl, but she doesn’t know.
女儿:You are too little to think about marrige now. You don’t know what love means. That is not love, but likeness.
儿子:I’m worry how I could do if my wife is bad, should I divorce her?
女儿:Go find a christian, stupid?
儿子:I could not divorce, even I don’t love her anymore?
女儿:You should be responsible for your family, not only yourself.
这个话题太大了,我也不知如何回答,就暂且让姐姐教教弟弟的责任心吧。至于具体的问题,等他长大了,自有智慧明断。
