Since our twins began learning to walk, my wife and I have kept telling them that our sliding(推拉式的)glass door is just a window. The _________ is simple. If we admit it is a door, they’ll want to _________. It will drive us crazy. It appears that the kids know the _________ though we have been continually telling them the other way.
I hate lying to kids. One day they’ll wake up and _________ that everything they’ve always known about windows is a lie. I wonder if _________ should always tell the truth no matter what result it may lead to. I have a very strong fear that the lie we’re telling will _________ our children. Windows and doors have important symbolic(象征性的)meanings. I’m telling them they can’t open what they _________ know is a door. Later in _________ they may come to a door which could be a good chance. Instead of opening the door and taking the chance, they just _________ it and wonder, “What if it isn’t a door?” That is, “What if it isn’t a __________ chance?”
Maybe it’s an unreasonable fear. But the bottom line is that I shouldn’t lie to my kids. So when they come to other doors in life, they will just open them and walk through.
