21、Dear Abby,

I’m a helpless mother. My son Tom is fifteen years old. I find that the older he grows, the less we talk. I feel very sad and I really need help.

My first problem is about his hobbies. He spends almost all his spare time on computer games. When he gets home, he always turns on the computer and closes the door. I’m getting worried about him, especially when his English teacher tells me he always gets low marks in the English exams.

Secondly, he likes new technology, but I don’t have enough money and I can’t afford (负担) all the things he wants.

Recently, I’ve found that he is always alone. I’ve never seen him talking to his friends on the phone or going out with anyone on weekends. That is the last problem I have.

What should I do to help him? Please give me some advice.

22、   Five years ago, my father and I had a serious disagreement. We avoided (避免) seeing each other unless we had to at Christmas or other family parties. But even then, we hardly spoke to each other.

Last Tuesday, when I got home, I told myself I was going to tell my father I loved him. It was strange, but just making that decision seemed to lift (掀起) a heavy storm off my heart.

I was so excited that I could hardly sleep during the night. The next morning I went to work early at 10: 00 in the morning, I called my dad to ask if I could come over after work. He agreed.

At 5: 30 in the afternoon I was at my parents’ house ringing the doorbell (门铃), hoping that dad would answer the door. I was afraid if mum answered that I would give up and tell her instead. Luckily, Dad did answer the door.

I didn’t waste any time—I took one step in the door and said, “Dad, I just came over to tell you that I love you.”

Believe it or not, it seemed like a magic. Before my eyes, my father’s face softened (变温和), the wrinkles (皱纹) seemed disappear and he began to cry. He hugged me and said excitedly “I LOVE YOU too, my dear son, but I never said it.” Seeing this, Mom walked by with tears (眼泪) in her eyes.

So my message to all of you is this: Don’t wait to do the things if you know it is necessary to do.

What would happen if I waited to tell my dad?
