They fear the pain inevitably brought by such things as marriage, raising children, professional achievement, religious commitment, self-improvemen

12、t. Ask a bachelor(單身漢)why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying. If he is honest he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment.

20、parents are out of touch with modem ways; that they are too serious and too strict with their children; and that they seldom give their children a free hand.It is true that parents often find it difficult to win their children trust and they tend to forget how they themselves felt when young.For exa
