Darling Kelli

I’m so sorry I will not get to see you grow up as I so want to. Please don’t blame people or the world for this. I wish I didn’t have cancer and you didn’t have to see me in pain as you often do now.

_1._ We don’t have that time. I won’t be able to drop you off on your first day at big school, pick you up after your first date, hold you when your heart hurts or cheer when you graduate.

But while your old dad is still around I thought I’d try to give you some life advice. I hope it gives you some comfort.

School

Everyone will say it’s important to work hard at school. Hopefully you’ll always do your best. I did well at school but did it do me much good in life? Not really. __2.__

Mummy

You and your mum will argue at times, especially when you’re a teenager. __3.__ Give Mummy a hug when she is feeling sad and help each other get through any horrible times when I am gone. When you’re a teenager you might think your friends are right and your mum is wrong. But she has to make hard decisions for you. Treat her well.

Christmas & birthdays

On your first Christmas without me, I’d love if you and Mummy would light a candle and remember me for a few minutes. It would be great if you two did the monkey dance together. That’s something to make me smile from up above.

I’ve given Nanny Sue presents for all your birthdays. I wish I could be there to see you open them. __4.__

__5.__

In life, many people will say you cannot do things. You make up your mind. Can you? Big challenges involve risks so make smart choices. Those who told me I couldn’t do certain things didn’t want me to do them. If you want something, it is nearly always possible, so do your best. I’m sure there’s a lot you can achieve!

And finally, thank you for being you, Kelli. Having you as my daughter is the greatest honour of my life.

All my love, always, to you princess and to Mummy,

Daddy

A. Please remember she loves you and wants the best for you.

B. Most dads and daughters have decades to chat around the kitchen table.

C. Remember your life motto.

D. Believe in yourself.

E. School work is important, but make sure you have fun too.

F. Remember to write thank-you letters for presents of kindness as it is always nice to act with grace and gratitude.

G. Hopefully you will like everything as it’s hard to imagine you at 10, 15, and 20.

Earlier this year,my oldest daughter got braces(矫正器)on her teeth,and let’s just say she did not go quietly into that dentist’s chair.Fear and hate pretty much describe the days leading up to her first appointment.

So when she finally walked out with shiny teeth,a sore(疼痛的)mouth and a broken spirit,I told her I was proud of her and took her to Ben &Jerry’s for an ice cream reward.Two weeks later,we returned to the scene of the crime.The dentist spent about 45 seconds checking her teeth before sending her on her merry way.Before I could start the car, she was placing her ice cream order.She was shocked when I told her that she wasn't going to get a reward every time we get her teeth checked.

Clearly,she’s not alone.According to some parenting experts,kids are easily addicted to a benefit—producing system of parental rewards and bribes—it’s not all ice creams,candies and cool toys.Some parents are offering their children prizes to just let them sit down and behave in a restaurant—or sleep in their own beds—or score a goal in the next soccer game.

While the experts agree that occasional awards are okay, the danger lies in the system’s overuse.Kids quickly gain a sense of entitlement(应得的权利),where they come to expect a big reward for every good thing that they do,no matter how small.To keep things in check,experts say parents should reduce the number of rewards they offer,make sure rewards match the behavior and explain the real benefits of behaving for the sake of behaving.

Have you used bribery or a reward system with your kids? Was it successful? Do your kids expect more because of that system?
