答案

Last weekend,I was trying to arrange（organize ） to have dinner with some old friends of mine.“Let me just check the diary (记事簿),” the mum said.She told me they would be free in six weeks because every other Saturday she and her husband were busy taking their daughter to different sports,school or social events.Their own lives had become completely dominated（主宰） by their teenage daughter’s.What they wanted to do had to take second place（放在第二位） to what she wanted to do.
No expense（cost） is spared（extra）,either.Estimates suggest it costs nearly 490,000 yuan to raise a child from birth to 18 in Beijing and Shanghai.British parents spend nearly ￡9,000 per year on their children,and as kids are demanding all the latest laptops,phones and staying at home even longer than before,this cost is growing by an alarming （令人担忧的）10% every year.
In China,parents who are putting their offspring（后代） first in everything are called “children’s slaves” — acting as banker,chauffeur,and general assistant to make sure their kids always get what they want,when and where they want it.In the UK,these mums and dads are called “helicopter parents*” because they are always hovering around their children.
Do devoted parents make the happiest children?Some think so; others challenge（怀疑） the idea.【 Children’s therapist David Code has written a bestselling book,in which he says that parents’ over-focus（ 过度关注） makes their children too demanding and selfish.】 But,anyway,no one could deny（否认） that parents are devoted only because they love their children.
Do you take your parents for granted（视为当然的）?I think I did.Do my kids take me for granted?Yes,they probably do.It’s part of growing up,but always remember,one day you yourself may be the parent with no money,no social life,and an over- demanding（过度要求的） child.Payback time（ 回收期限）!
.【 Children’s therapist David Code has written a bestselling book,in which he says that parents’ over-focus makes their children too demanding and selfish.】 中文翻译：儿童临床医学家大卫.蔻德曾经写了一本畅销的书,在裏面他说了家长对孩子的过度关注会使他们的孩子变得过度要求和自私.
