Dear Daniel,

I feel that I've grown up and should make my own decisions, but my parents disagree. My mom still helps me choose what clothes to wear. My dad asks me to pay attention only to study. I know they do this out of love, but I feel controlled. What should I do?

Amanda

Dear Amanda,

Your parents sound very strict. It's hard to believe that your mom chooses what you wear. Are you a Barbie doll?

Try to take the first step when possible. Dress yourself before your mother has a chance to come in and choose your clothes. If she asks you to change, tell her you'll be late for school.

You should also talk to her. Ask about her choices: What makes a set of clothes acceptable or unacceptable? Tell her you will follow her rules, but you want to make the choices. You are not in first grade.You are a young lady in high school.

As for your father, it's difficult to argue with his mind. After all, he is not totally wrong. How strict is he? Does he lock you up with your textbooks? Are you allowed to have a hobby?Are you allowed to have a smartphone? Are you allowed to hang out with friends?

Such strict parents should know the law of diminishing returns (收益递减). A weightlifter,for example, can only lift for an hour or two each day. If she docs more,her muscles will not become stronger.She will just get tired. She may even hurt herself!

Our brains also have limits. Some violin teachers say you should only practice a new skill for 15 minutes each day. Our brains need to relax and understand new information. Our brains also have a basic need to socialize (社交). Ask your father: what is the meaning of so much studying if it makes you feel unhappy?

Stay strong.

Daniel

February 29th comes up on the calendar only every four years.A year with a February 29th might be good news if you are paid by the day or the week.But it might be bad news if you were born on a February 29th.You have to wait three years in between birthdays!

American English has an expression for the unusual situation. February 29th is called a leap day. And the year with a February 29th in it is called a leap year. This year, 2020, is such a year.

As a verb,the word "leap" means to jump, or to move quickly."Leap" can also be a noun,meaning a jump, or a sudden move.

In a leap year, the dates jump over one day of the week. Let me explain. In 2017,the last day of the year, December 31st , fell on a Sunday. In 2018, it fell on a Monday. In 2019, it fell on a Tuesday. But in 2020, December 31st will fall on a Thursday. It jumps right over Wednesday.

The reason for a leap day or a leap year is because our calendar does not follow the earth's orbit(轨道)around the sun exactly. Each year, we have a little time left over. So every four years,we put all that time together into an extra(额外的) day.

Some people choose to marry on February 29th because it is an unusual date.But some ancient peoples would likely tell couples not to do it. Leap years were believed to be difficult, and leap days were unlucky.To be honest, these have no scientific basis(依据).

My husband Shane and I were hanging out on the street one evening. I was talking but he was looking over at someone.

He walked over to a young girl who was crying. As he talked to her, I could see from his body language that he was trying to calm(使平静) her down. When I joined them, I realized that she had been homeless for some time. She told Shane that all she wanted was to go to her sister's house in another city.

Some people would have handed her some money, wished her lunch or maybe allowed her to make a call. Shane did much more. He said,"Kelly, I can't leave her here like this. Sometimes people need someone not only to help them but to believe they 're telling the truth."
