My son Joey was born with club feet. The doctors said that with treatment he would be able to walk, but would never run very well. The first three years of his life was in hospital. By the time he was eight, you wouldn’t know he has a problem when you saw him .
Children in our neighborhood always ran around their play, and Joey would jump and ran and play, . We never told him that he probably wouldn’t be to run like the other children. So he didn’t know.
In grade he decided to join the school running team. Every day he trained. He ran more than any of the others, only the top seven runners would be chosen to run for the . We didn’t tell him he probably would never make the team, so he didn’t know.
He ran four to five miles every day — even when he had a fever. I was , so I went to him after school. I found him running . I asked him how he felt. “Okay,” he said. He had two more miles to go. Yet he looked straight ahead and kept .
Two weeks later, the names of the team were called. Joey was number six on the list. Joey had the team. He was in seventh grade — the other six team members were all eighth graders. We never told him he couldn’t do it … so he didn’t know. He just it.

I remember that when I was in my teens，I used to refuse to follow the many “dos” and “don’ts” of my parents．For example，when I planned to sleep with my pet dog，they immediately said，” 1 “because they thought it was dangerous．This was just an example of the things I thought my parents were 2 about.
Today，however，I am the father of a boy aged 15，and I find that I too，am pressuring my son with a lot of 3 that are hard for him．
The 4 day，I noticed that my son was wearing giant pants that could 5 three teenagers. No one should wear them．I commanded him to take them off at once .Usually，he 6 me，but this time he put his foot down．”What’s wrong with giant pants? 7 classmates wear them. And I don’t think you have the right to ask me to remove them， 8 you are my father!” said he．I 9 realized that we are now living in a society with more freedom，and that my son’s strong will on wearing giant pants was just an 10 of the generation gap(代沟) between us．Therefore，I gave in and now he is still wearing giant pants．
