Dear Mom,
亲爱的妈咪,
The big question appalled and surprised parents often ask their child after a confrontational or revelatory moment is, "Where did you get this attitude from?" I know you hate to admit it, but I get much of my determined and strong-willed nature from you.
经过一阵对抗和宣泄之后,震惊的父母通常会问:“你的这种态度是哪里来的?”我知道你不乐意承认这些,但我这坚持不懈的性格,大多都是从你那里学来的。
Mom, I know it’s hard dealing with the teenage angst and the ever-changing moods that come with raising a child. But you should also marvel at the fact that I’ve made it this far, that I’m healthy and happy.
妈妈,我知道对为青春期的孩子担忧的感受不好受,也知道你的心情因为养育孩子而跌宕起伏。但你也应该惊叹于我已经成长到了这一步,而我现在健康又快乐。
When I was small, I would attend barbecues and family events and wander away from my parents. It wouldn’t be long before someone would stop me to ask whether I was my mother’s daughter.
小时候,我会在烧烤派对和家庭活动中离开父母自己到处跑。不久,总会有人拦住我问我是不是我母亲的女儿。
"Your mom is Melissa," they’d say, a warm smile on their faces. "Is that right?" I would nod, I assume, parents feel when their child talks back or defies them, I was appalled at this statement. To me, I acted nothing like you, Mom.
