母親的謊言

One day， Thomas Edison came home and gave a letter to his mother. “My teacher told me to only give this letter to you， Mom.” His mothers eyes were tearful as she read the letter out loud to her child， “Your son is a genius. This school is too small for him and doesnt have enough good teachers for training him. Please teach him yourself.”

Many years after Edisons mother had died， Edison had become one of the greatest inventors of the century. One day he was going through the old closet and he found a folded letter which was given to him by his teacher for his mother. He opened it. The message written on the letter was， “Your son is mentally ill. We can not let him attend our school anymore. He is expelled1.”

Edison became emotional reading it and then he wrote in his diary， “Thomas Alva Edison was a mentally ill child whose mother turned him into the genius of the century.”

A mothers love and upbringing2 can help change the destiny of a child.

一天，托馬斯·愛迪生回到家里，交給媽媽一封信：“我的老師讓我把這封信只給你看?！彼膵寢尯蹨I大聲給兒子讀出了信中的內(nèi)容：“你的孩子是個天才。這個學校對他來說太小了，沒有足夠的好老師來訓練他，請你自己教他吧?！?/p>

母親去世很多年后，愛迪生成了那個世紀最偉大的發(fā)明家之一。一天，他在細查舊櫥柜時發(fā)現(xiàn)了那封折疊的、由他老師讓他轉(zhuǎn)交給母親的信。他打開了信，上面寫著這樣的話：“你的兒子智力上有毛病，我們不能再讓他上學了，他被開除了。”

讀著讀著，愛迪生愈發(fā)感動。后來，他在日記里寫道：“托馬斯·阿爾瓦·愛迪生是個智力有問題的孩子，是他的母親讓他成為了一個世紀天才?！?/p>

母親的愛和撫育能夠改變一個孩子的命運。
