He says: "There is a loss of aspiration for independence and striking out on your own. When I went to university it would have been a social death to have been seen with your parents, whereas now it's the norm." 我知道那种感觉。在同一篇BBC文章中,肯特大学的社会学教授弗兰克·富里迪认为你做的很对。他说:“对独立自主、自立生活的渴望大大削弱。我上大学那会儿,要是还跟父母住一起会被人耻笑,但现在这种情况已经屡见不鲜了。” Neil: So he thinks living at home makes you lose the aspiration – or the desire to be independent, and he says in his day it would have been social death – so embarrassing - to be seen by others to live at home! 所以他认为住在家里会让你不想独立,同时他还说在他们那个时候住在家里会被人耻笑! Finn: Yes, and I think he's saying living at home stops you growing up quickly. 是的,我认为他说的是住在家里会阻止你更快的成长。 Neil: Does this mean we are developing a generation of big babies? 这是否意味着我们在养育着一代长不大的孩子? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
