教子故事之一：小刀被老師吼了

三刀的兒子很淘氣，前幾天從CAMP回來很不爽，說老師對他大吼了，我問：是一般的嚴厲，還是尖叫？兒子說：是尖叫。我說：那你給學一下。兒子就尖叫了一聲，確實很大聲。


於是我問好了那個CAMP老師的名字，叫Claire.

昨天我就送兒子去CAMP了，按照兒子的指點，找到了Claire。下面就是對話：

本刀滿臉堆笑：Hello， are you Claire?

Claire: Yes I am, how can I help you?

本刀接著堆笑：Can you please come over here, I would like to have a word with you.(氣勢上一定要居高臨下）

Claire 茫然：Yes sure.

本刀皮笑肉不笑：My son, Sandao Jr., told me that you were screaming at him in a class yesterday, he was a little upset when he got home, but I would just like to get your side of story on what actually happened? May be you can give me some sort of explanation? （一副探求真理的模樣）

Claire有點意外：Hmm...I am not sure what you are referring to, I did ask them to sit down and stop talking sometimes, but that was toward the whole class, not to your son in particular.

本刀認真的樣子：Oh you did the right thing, I am with you totally.（先要肯定對方的工作嘛）Absolutely you need to be firm with them. But I would just like to confirm with you that there was no excessive loudness and unnecessary shouting/screaming involved.（別跟洒家玩虛的，我沒跟你開玩笑）

Claire有點無辜：Oh no no, I did not scream at them.

本刀假裝釋然：Then that's great. Thanks you for your time, have a nice day.　（轉身就走，不啰唆）

從此以後，據小刀說，那個Claire只敢對著其他人叫了。 其實這麼多年，我發現在西方文化里的人，是有一種狼性的，也就是他們會咬任何一個文化外的族裔，這個咬，包括打壓／欺侮／虐待／歧視。。。直到發現你會主 動攻擊他或者會用棒子去打痛他。這可能是西方人天然的一種爭鬥習慣。所以我覺得，但凡覺得受欺負了或可能受欺負了，第一件事就得讓對方知道你不是好惹的。 然後這個PLAY　GROUND，才真正的是平的。
