26、family, I found their teenage son, David, aged 16, didnt share his true feelings with his parents.

28、 On a scale (级别 ) of 0-10, it is a big fat zero. He is the most boring teacher I have ever had. I asked him why he didnt tell me this earlier.

29、ng. This made me think a lot. My belief is that children are born with the desire to share feelings. I also believe they are born with perfect emotional honesty.
