8.Is there a magic cutoff period when offspring become accountable for their own actions?Is there a wonderful moment when parents can become spectators (旁观者) in the lives of their children and shrug,"It's their life,"and feel nothing?When I was in my twenties,I stood in a hospital corridor waiting for doctors to put a few stitches in my son's head.I was asked,"When do you stop worrying?"A nurse said,"When they get out of the accident stage."My mother just smiled faintly and said nothing.
When I was in my thirties,I sat on a little chair in a classroom and heard how one of my children talked incessantly,disrupted (打断) the class,and was headed for a career making license plates.As if to read my mind,a teacher said,"Don't worry.They all go through this stage,and then you can sit back,relax,and enjoy them."My mother listened and said nothing.
When I was in my forties,I spent a lifetime waiting for the phone to ring and the cars to come home,the front door to open.
My friends said that when my kids got married I could stop worrying and lead my own life.I wanted to believe that,but I was haunted by my mother's wan ( 淡淡的 ) smile and her occasional words,"You look pale.Are you all right?Call me the minute you get home."
Can it be that parents are sentenced to a lifetime of worry?Is concern for one another handed down like a torch to blaze the trail of human frailties and the fears of the unknown?Is concern a curse?Or is it a virtue that elevates us to the highest form of life?
One of my children became quite irritable recently,saying to me,"Where were you?I've been calling for three days,and no one answered.I was worried!!!"
I smiled a wan smile.
