I was tired and hungry after a long day of work. When I walked into the living-room, my 12-year-old son looked up at me and said, “I 41 you.” I did not 42 what to say, and I just stood there, looking 43 at him. My first 44 was that he 45 need help with his homework. Then I asked, “What was that all 46 ?”
“Nothing,” he said, “My teacher said we should tell our parents we love them and 47 what they say.”
The next day I called his teacher to 48 more about what my son said and how the other parents had reacted（ 反应） . “Most of the fathers had the 49 response as you did,” the teacher said, ”When I first 50 that we try this, I asked the children 51 they thought their parents 52 say. Some of them thought their parents would have heart trouble.”
Then the teacher 53 , “ I want my students to know that feeling love is an important part of 54 . I’m trying to tell them it’s too bad that we don’t express our feelings. A boy 55 tell his father or mother he loves him.” The teacher understands that sometimes it is 56 for some of us to say something that is good for us to say.
That evening when my son 57 to me, I took him in my arms and held on for an 58 moment, saying, “Hey, I love you, 59 .” I don’t know if saying that made 60 of us healthier, but it did feel pretty good.
