After that happened, I there were a million things about Grandma that were embarrassing.
Once she took Jill and me out to Burger King. ordering our hamburgers well-done, she told the person behind the counter, "They'll have two Whoppers (巨无霸) well-to-do. " Jill burst out laughing, but I almost .
After a while, I started wishing I could Grandma in a closet. I even complained to my parents. Both my parents said I had to be careful not to make Grandma feel in our home.
Then last Wednesday, something happened that everything completely. My teacher told us to help find interesting old people and them about their for a big Oral History project. I was trying to think of someone when Angie pushed me gently.

The world has never faced so much trouble before. People are within themselves about natural resources, territories and especially religions. In my opinion, laughter is a universal language, which has the ability to humanity without religions. Laughter can build a common connection between various religions and create a new world . The idea may sound over-ambitious, and maybe it is. But maybe it is not. It is our deep that laughter and only the laughter can unite the world, holding up a sense of brotherhood and friendship.

You may be surprised to see “making sure children never suffer” as a mistake. The following may help you understand how rescuing children from all suffering weakness.
A little boy felt sorry for a butterfly struggling to from its chrysalis. He decided to the butterfly. So he peeled the chrysalis open for the butterfly. The little boy was so to watch the butterfly spread its wings and fly off into the sky. Then he was horrified he watched the butterfly fall to the ground and die because it did not have the muscle to keep flying. In fact, the butterfly’s struggle to the chrysalis helps the butterfly become stronger.
Like the little boy, too often want to protect their children from struggle in the of love. They don’t realize that their children need to struggle, to experience , to deal with disappointment, and to solve their own problems. Only in this way can children their emotional strength, become and develop the skills necessary for the even bigger struggles they will meet throughout their lives. Children experiencing sufferings can the ups and downs of life.
However, it isn’t helpful either in this case when parents lectures(训斥), blame and shame to what the child is experiencing. Mothers to say, “Stop crying and acting like a spoiled boy. You can’t always get what you want.” These words should be avoided.
Instead, parents can offer loving support. You can say, “Don’t lose . Be brave! You will succeed if you try again.” Then comes the tough part—no a no lectures. Simply allow him to discover that he can get over his disappointment and what he can do to get what he wants in the future.
