The one and only responsibility of your mom’s child is to minimise the time your parents worry about him/her.
I was woken up this morning by my mom, it was 6.20am. Half awake, i was telling my mom that my brother would fetch me to school today. However,my mom told me that my brother was not home yet! My mom slept at 4.00am just to wait for my brother to come back. Poor mother, needed to sacrifice 4 hours of her sleep just because my brother had not called home ONCE to tell her where he was. In the end, when we opened the front door, we found my brother sleeping in his car. Good thing was that he called up mom in the afternoon and apologised to her.
Parent’s job is to look after their children, and if their child is missing in action, of cause they would be anxious, just like my mom. 身体发肤受之父母. We can live on this world thanks to our parent’s attention, care and guidance and should we repay them by making them worried for us? Of course not!
If making a phone call back home can let you mom sleep for 4 more hours, would you make the call?
