Chapter 7-12


Reading Response

Finished this book yesterday, Lydia'd death was a tragedy, however, the family members tried to face themselves and have everything back on the right track because of it. Perhaps this is the best ending for this family, moving on bravely, for themselves, also for Lydia.

Some thoughts just keep lingering in my mind: Do we really know our kids as we expected? Does my daughter try to complete something to please me? It turns out I am just neurotic after the talk with my daughter. But it still let me ruminate a lot. I think it's fine for parents to have reasonable expectation on their children, however, it can be an invisible hand pushing your kids away from you when it is too much.

Listen  to their voice deep down and don't be in the way for them to be themselves.
