People wele you “this young lady” heartily. You are glad that your prayer has been answered. But there is always something that troubles you a lot. You say。 “Papa and Mama, give me some money please. My pocket money is all gone already.” “No”, they say, “your age is a dangerous age. If you have too much money to spend, it won’t do you any good.” Then you have to stay at home because you dare not go out with an empty pocket. Another time you tell your grandma, “Grandma, see, I am a grownup now.” “Good, now, you can sit here and knit (編織 ) this for me while I go and have a rest.” To show that you are no more a child, you have to sit there the whole afternoon doing the work, which only a grownup can do.
