When I walked into the living-room, my 12-year-old son looked 26 at me and said “I love you”. I didn’t know what to say. 27 several seconds I stood there and 28 down at him. My first thought was that he must need 29 while doing his homework 30 he was trying to prepare me for some 31 .
“ 32 ,” he said, “My teacher said we should tell our parents that we love them and see what they say. It’s an experiment.”
The next day I 33 his teacher at my office to find out more about this “ 34 ” and how the other parents had responded (反应).
“ 35 , most of the fathers did the same as you ,: the teacher explained, “Feeling 36 is an important part of 37 . It’s something all human beings 38 . What I’m trying to tell the children is that it’s too 39 that we don’t express those feelings. A boy should be 40 to tell his dad that he loves him.”
The teacher, a middle-aged man, understands how difficult it is for 41 of us to say the things that would be good for us to say.
When my son came to me 42 , I held on to him for an extra second. And just 43 he
pulled away, I said in my deepest, most manly 44 , “Hey, I love you .”
I didn’t know if saying that would make 45 of us healthier, but we did feel pretty better.
