儿子四岁了, 对死亡的概念很迷惑. 他心爱的两条小鱼之一最近死了, 在 解释了无数遍之后, 终于接受了小鱼不会再醒来的事实. 有时看着鱼缸里的那条小鱼, 会想起另一条, 叹口气: "Poor little fishie"

之后不久的一天, 突然很严肃地问: Mommy, how long can I live?

我答: 你会活两百岁.

仰着小脸儿, 眼泪已在眼眶里打转, 问: What will happen if I die? I don't wanna die.

心软, 答: You are gonna be a new baby again.

问: Are you and Daddy gonna die? I don't want you die.

心酸，恐怕总会有那一天，答：Even if Mommy and Daddy are dead, we will always be with you.

问：You will always be in my heart? Like Little Foot's Mommy?

低头，眼泪已在眼眶里打转，答：Yes, we will always always be in your heart!

注：　Little Foot is a little dinosaur whose Mommy was hit by a meteorite.
