          最近发神经,开始每天规定自己背几段英文,昨天开始哈利波特妈妈J.K.罗琳在哈佛毕业典礼上的演讲。有一段让我感触很深。关于父母对孩子的影响,和我们对父母应该持有的态度。

         I do not blame my parents for their point of view. There is an expiry date on blaming your parents for steering you in the wrong direction; the moment you are old enough to take the wheel, responsibility lies with you.

        What is more, I can't criticise my parents for hoping that I would never experience poverty. They had been poor themselves and I have since been poor, and I quite agree with them that it is not an ennobling experience. Poverty entails fear, stress and sometimes depression; it means a thousand petty humiliations and hardships. Climbing out of poverty by you own efforts, that is indeed someting on which to pride youself, but poverty itself is romanticised by only fools.
