想象一下:你新搬进一个公寓后,发现你被里面的蟑螂包围了,它们时不时出现在你的所有物品中,甚至在冰箱里出现。这会不会对你造成心理创伤?
我孩子为了暑假的实习工作,不幸住进了一个蟑螂成灾的公寓,在那里住了几乎三个月。
这是孩子第一次自己一个人住一个公寓,还要独自面对一个蟑螂王国。
杀虫公司去杀了两次,加上孩子自己放的各种roach traps,也没能彻底消灭各种蟑螂,死的活的还是不断出现在各处,包括洗碗机,锅碗瓢盆,床边……,蟑螂简直是无处不在。
孩子自从住进那个公寓后,几乎每天都和我们讲蟑螂的问题,讲了一个多月后就不再讲了,因为再讲还是在重复老问题,没有彻底解决的办法,现在还差几天她就完成实习可以搬走了。
孩子给我的text message:
I should be given some kind of award for dealing with the roach problem.
Most mental fortitude and grace of anyone ever who has lived in this apartment.
我立即写给她的鼓励:
You used to scream when you see spiders. Now after the roach immersion, you’re able to calmly deal with and co-exist with them, this takes incredible personal strength. Basically you have transformed yourself by lifting your bug-fear away. Although you’re still disgusted by the roaches, you managed to get even with them during this long lasting battle. Here I am honored to issue you the Roach-Combat Hero Award!
孩子一看就高兴了,她的灭虫挣扎和努力被看到了!
