I noticed that every morning my brother-in-law would walk the son to the bus-stand, just like what everyone would do when their kids were small. But in this case, my nephew is a bright young man; he knows the way to the bus-stand. Why bother to do so then?
I would not think of doing this myself as I am one who is too lazy to walk an extra step. It didn't strike me that this ten minutes' walk could actually do wonders to the "father and son relationship".
We often hear people around us grumbling about their children; they seem to be so busy with their own activities that they could hardly find time to talk to the parents. We often conveniently blame all this to the hectic kind of city lives, not knowing that we can attempt to do something about it.
Why not "just take a little walk with them" sometimes?
