Exercise
2
Our children will ‘hate us ’too.
With’out a ‘family, ‘man, a’lone in the ‘world,
‘trembles with the ‘cold.
In the ‘healthiest ‘families, the ‘power is
‘shared by a’greement. In the ‘others, ‘one ‘parent or the ‘other is ‘usually
more ‘powerful.
‘Parents are ‘sometimes a ‘bit of a
disa’ppointment to their ‘children. They ‘don’t ful’fil the ‘promise of their
‘early ‘years.
The ‘family is the ‘place where the ‘most
ri’diculous and the ‘least re’spectable things in the ‘world ‘go on.
No ‘matter ‘how ‘old a ‘mother ‘is, she ‘watches
her ‘middle-‘aged ‘children for ‘signs of im’provement.
‘God gives us our ‘relatives: ‘thank ‘God we can
‘choose our ‘friends.

Exercise

It is well-known that relationships between
children and their parents fundamentally affect adult behaviour. But now their
importance is being challenged as new research shows that a child’s
relationship with its siblings may have a more important effect. Psychologist
Francine Klagsbrun says ‘Our relationship with our siblings is unmatchable. We have
them whether we like them or not. As parents die, friends drift away, marriages
dissolve, that relationship continues and the memories of a life shared with
them remain with us long after childhood has ended.’
