Dear Dr Fang,
How are you? I am writing to ask for some 36 about how to help my 15-year-old son. At the moment, he refuses to do almost anything his mother and I ask him to do. He is our only child and we treat him very 37 . Though his grandparents buy him many things, yet he is still 38 to them and often shouts at them. He also 39 to spend time with us or do as we tell him.
Recently, he has been refusing to do his homework, and instead insists on 40 his time listening to foreign music. I cannot understand that 41 , and I don’t like it. Meanwhile, he spends too much time in Internet cafes, where he either plays games 42 chats on the Internet. He is wasting valuable time during this 43 period in his life!
What shall I do? I am worried about it. 44 I keep allowing him to do what he wants, he may fail at school, or worse. How can I help my son 45 hurting our feelings?
Best regards

When I was young, I belonged to a club that did community sevice work．There was one specific event that was unusual for me. I spent three or four hours handing out warm dinner to the homeless out in the streets. After that I went to a homeless shelter not far from the Bay Bridge.
I was in high school and at the time my sister was too young to 36 . She wanted to help, 37 she made four or five dozen chocolate chip cookies for me to 38 and hand out to people. When getting to the homeless shelter 39 passed out the remaining meals. 40 , I began making sandwiches and 41 them with the crowd. I had the containers with my 42 cookies in them and began to 43 , offering them to anyone near me.
I 44 an old gentleman and said, “sir, would you like a cookie?” He stopped and turned around, 45 me right in the eye and said, “What did you say? Did you call me sir?” I told him I 46 , and his eyes 47a little bit and he said, “No one has 48 called me sir.” So he 49 .
It struck me.
I explained I had been raised that 50 color and social status, everyone deserved respect. It 51 me to think that just because he was homeless, no one 52 him the honor. It broke my heart, and I53 .I just didn’t understand 54 no one ever called him sir? I had never thought that anyon e was below me because I wasn’t raised that way. Every 55 person deserves to be treated with dignity. Years later, I still carry that memory and the lessons it taught me. Sometimes, what we take for granted can really make a difference in someone’s life.
