3. Your mom and dad were young and clueless and angst-ridden once, too. (Back to the Future)
3.你的爸爸媽媽也曾年少無知,焦慮不安。電影《回到未來》)(Back to the Future)
It was something of a revelation for me when I saw Michael J. Fox's Marty McFly interact with his parents as awkward teenagers in Back to the Future. As Marty observes his dad's teenage cluelessness, he says, "It's a wonder I was even born." Part of my job, I feel, is to allow my children to know that I was in their shoes once, and I still don't know everything... but I know more than they do. For now. OK, maybe not when it comes to new math, but still.
