有一個男人, 為了參加第二天的小學同學會，特地上街, 買一條新長褲。

A man bought a new pair of trousers for his primary school mates’ reunion dinner. When he tried out at home, he found that the trousers were too long by 10cm.
他回家穿上後，卻發覺長度多了十公分。於是請求媽媽替他改。
媽媽說，身體不舒服，想早一點休息,今晚不想改。

當天晚上，他媽媽心想：「兒子平時對我很孝順，他開口要求總不好拒絕他。」於是，起來替兒子改長褲，剪短了十公分。

他女兒晚上回來： 「爸爸不阻止我去跳舞，實在是開明的老爸，今天實在應該替他修改長褲。」於是替爸爸改長褲，剪短了十公分。

第二天早上，三個女人分別告訴男主人此事。他一試長褲，已經變成七分褲了。

如果您是故事中的男人或女人，當下您會做何反應？

「哈哈一笑」抑或「破口大罵」？

人，面對外人時，總是可以表現得雍容大肚、心平氣和，但面對自己最親近的家人，卻往往一點小事,就足以皺起眉頭，甚至出言相傷。

如果形容人類是一種「出門高E.Q，回家低E.Q」的動物，我想一點兒也不誇張，
