He is worried about his own future.
- 2008/06/05(Thu) -
When my son & I took a bath together, my son said anxiously, "I am worried about a few things."
"Tell me what makes you worry, honey," I said.
He started to talk about his own worries. "First, about my carrer. I wonder if I will be able to work at the office, because I don't know how to get there. I haven't got on a train alone, I don't know what to say to my collegues."
I was about to burst into laughter, but I saw his very serious face and I tried very hard not to laugh at his remarks.
"Second, about my marriage. I don't think I'll be able to find somebody I could marry. Because it is so hard to say, "I love you. Would you marry me?" I'm too shy to say such embarrassing words. "

Wow, carrer & marrige, that's very serious problems!

I started to soothe him, saying, "Now you are only eight. You have about 14 years by the time you start to work. Assuming that you get married to a girl when you are 30 years old, you have 22 years to find Miss. Right. See? You don't have to worry about it at all, at least right now. You are SO young!"

However, he wouldn't withdraw.

To be continued...

Hi, Karen! Working and getting married, both are very important events in the life. Maybe they sound so tough for a young boy as your son. How come he bumped against such hard problems, I wonder. I'm looking forward to the following story.

How cute he is! Is he only eight? He sounds like a big boy! Kids grow so fast, don't they?
My daughters were just chasing after a lizard.^^;
Now time has passed, you know, I have to look up to talk to them.

Long time no see! I'm so glad that you still remember my blog and visit here again.
Yes, kids grow so fast! When I talk to my children, I don't have to look up to them, though. (lol)
