remember that when I was in my teens,I used to refuse to obey many of the "do's" and "don'ts" my parents dictated to me.For example,when I kept on playing jazz records on the stereo,my father would condemn such music as sheer noise and replaced them with disks of classical music that I always considered extremely dull.When I insisted that I sleep with my pet dog,they immediately said,"No way," because they thought I would be bitten by fleas.These were just a few examples of the things I thought my parents were unreasonable about.
Today,however,I am a father of a boy aged 15,and I find that I too,am pressuring my son with a lot of rules and regulations hard for him to "swallow".It's not uncommon to hear my yelling at him,"What do you mean by fooling around all night without reviewing your lessons?" or "How come you did it?You are still wet behind the ears." The other day,I noticed that my son wore giant pants that three teen-agers could occupy.No one would wear them on the grounds that they were indecent and undignified.I at once commanded him to take them off.Usually,he is fairly obedient,but this time he put his foot down."What's wrong with giant pants?All my classmates wear them,and I don't think you have the authority to order me to remove them,even though you are my father!" said he.When I was a boy,if I had spoken with such rudeness to my elders,I would have been given a good beating.But I suddenly realized that we are now living in a more liberal society,and that my son's insistence on wearing giant pants was merely an instance of the generation gap that existed between us.Therefore,I gave in and now he still wears giant pants.
记得在我十多岁的时候,对父母要求的“可以”和“不可以”,常常拒不遵守.比如说,当我用立体声听爵士乐的时候,老爸会认为这纯粹是噪音并用古典音乐的唱片来替换掉我的爵士乐,而我认为古典音乐真是彻头彻尾的无味.当我要和我的宠物狗睡在一起是,他们总是马上说不行,因为认为跳蚤会咬到我.这些只是我认为父母不可理喻的几个例子而已.
但是现在,我是一个15岁男孩的爸爸.我发现自己也在向自己的孩子强加一些他不愿意接受的规矩.我经常对他叫嚷,“你怎么没完成作业就到处闲逛?”或者“你怎么这样就出来了?你耳朵后面还是湿的.”
前几天,我看到他穿了一条能容下三个十来岁的人穿的肥大裤子,而一个体面而庄重的人是不会穿这样的裤子的.我马上让他脱掉这条裤子.平常他都是乖乖的照做的,但是这次他拒绝了,他说“肥型裤怎么了?我的同学都穿.虽然你是我爸爸,可是你也不能命令我不能穿它.”
当我是个孩子的时候,如果我这样对长辈说话,肯定会挨一顿好打.但是我突然意识到现在是一个更加自由的时代,儿子坚持穿肥型裤只是我和他之间代沟的一个例子而已.所以我让步了,他到现在还穿着肥型裤.
