One night l was sitting in my room half-listening when my 14-year-old son Tommy fought with his 12-year-old brother Kevin. I didn't pay attention when Kevin rushed up the stairs with the hurt on his face.

    About 20 minutes later, when l was walking upstairs I hear Kevin crying inside the bathroom. I knocked on the door and asked, "Hey, Kevin, do you want to talk?"

    No answer.

    I tried again, "Why don't you come out of there?"

    Again, no answer.

    So, looking around, I took a stack of（一摞）cards and a pencil and wrote, "If you don't want to talk, we can write notes to each other."

An hour later I was still sitting on the floor outside the bathroom with two stacks of cards in front of me. One was blank and one was cards from Kevin on which he expressed all his terrible feeling into words for me, One of Kevin's notes said, "Nobody in this family cares about me. I am not the youngest, and I am not the oldest. Tommy thinks I am silly and Dad wishes he had the other

    Kevin as a kid because he's better at basketball. And you're never around to even notice me."

My eyes became wet as I wrote back to him. "You know, Kevin, I really do love you and I'm sorry I don't always show it. I am here for you and you are loved in this family."

There was no answer for a while, but then l hear a tearing（撕）sound coming from inside the bathroom. Kevin who had run out of cards wrote on a torn paper cup, "Thanks."

I wrote back "For what?"

It returned to me with "Loving me" on it.

Since then, I try my best to never only half-notice my family members any more. Kevin and I have a closer relationship now. And sometimes when one of us notices that the other is unhappy,  we'll smile and say "Write it on a paper cup."

Recently a Beijing father sent in a question at an Internet forum(论坛) asking what “PK” meant.
“My family has been watching the ‘I Am the Singer’ singing competition TV program. My little daughter asked me what ‘PK’ meant, but I had no idea,” explained the puzzled father.
To a lot of Chinese young people who have been playing games online, it is impossible not to know this term. In such Internet games, “PK” is short for “Player Kill”, in which two players fight until one ends the life of the other.
In the case of the “I Am the Singer” singing competition, “PK” was used to refer to the stage where two singers have to compete with each other for only one chance to go up in competition raking.
Like this father, Chinese teachers at Middle schools have also been finding their students using Internet jargons which are difficult to understand. A teacher from Tianjin asked her students to write the compositions with simple language, but they came up with a lot of Internet jargons that she didn’t understand.
“My ‘GG’ came back this summer from college. He told me I’ve grown up to be a ‘PLMM’. I loved to ‘FB’ with him together; he always took me to the ‘KPM’,” went one composition.
“GG” means Ge Ge (Chinese pinyin for brother). “PLMM” is Piao Liang Mei Mei (beautiful girl). “FB” means Fu Bai (corruption). “KPM” is short for KFC, Pizza Hut and McDonald’s.
Some specialists welcome Internet jargons as a new development in language. If you do not even know what a Kong Long (dinosaur, meaning an ugly looking female) or a Qing Wa (frog, meaning an ugly looking male ) is, you will possibly be regarded as a Cai Niao!
