從2007年起，爸爸就開始拍自己和女兒坐在沙發(fā)上的照片

Like a fine wine, some people only get better with age. Part of it has to do with genetics, but a large portion depends on your lifestyle. And a perfect example of looking better and better with time is Dr. Alec Couros, a professor of educational technology and media at the University of Regina in Canada.

就像好酒一樣，有些人越老越好。這部分與基因有關(guān)，但很大一部分取決于你的生活方式。加拿大里吉納大學(xué)(University of Regina)的教育技術(shù)和媒體教授亞歷克·庫羅斯(Alec Couros)博士就是一個(gè)完美的例子，說明隨著時(shí)間的推移，你的形象會越來越美。

He took photos of himself and his daughter sitting on the couch together with laptops since 2007, and while his daughter has grown up, her transformation wasn’t the only one that was impressive. It would be no stretch of the imagination to say that Dr. Couros looks better as the years go by. Not only does it look like he doesn’t age, in fact, at 48 years old, he looks much younger, more energetic, more full of life, and more handsome than before.

從2007年起，他就開始用筆記本電腦拍下自己和女兒坐在沙發(fā)上的照片。說庫洛斯博士的氣色隨著歲月的流逝而越來越好，這一點(diǎn)也不夸張。他不僅看起來沒有變老，事實(shí)上，在48歲的時(shí)候，他看起來比以前更年輕，更有活力，更有生活氣息，更英俊。

In an exclusive and in-depth interview, Dr. Couros talked to Bored Panda about the photos with his daughter, how he changed his life, as well as about the foundation of a healthy relationship between parents and children. Read on for the full interview, as well as the professor’s challenge for all of you Bored Pandas out there.

在一次獨(dú)家深入采訪中，庫羅斯博士向Bored Panda講述了他和女兒的照片，他如何改變了自己的生活，以及父母和孩子之間健康關(guān)系的基礎(chǔ)。請繼續(xù)閱讀完整的采訪，以及教授對你們這些Bored Panda提出的挑戰(zhàn)。

2007

2014

2019

The professor, who specializes in social networks and social media at the University of Regina, has a very large family. He revealed to Bored Panda that he has 4 children, all between 5 and 15 years old. (The writer of this article is the oldest of 4 siblings, so it’s a pleasant coincidence.) According to Dr. Couros, his kids are already “well-immersed in a society full of technology that is much different from the one many of us grew up in.”

這位教授在Regina大學(xué)專門研究社交網(wǎng)絡(luò)和社交媒體，他有一個(gè)非常大的家庭。他向Bored Panda透露，他有4個(gè)孩子，年齡都在5到15歲之間。(這篇文章的作者是四個(gè)兄弟姐妹中年齡最大的，所以這是一個(gè)令人愉快的巧合。)庫羅斯博士說，他的孩子們已經(jīng)“很好地融入了一個(gè)充滿科技的社會，這個(gè)社會與我們許多人成長的環(huán)境大不相同。”

“The reaction to this Reddit post was obviously larger and broader than what I expected. I’m happy to see how (mostly) positively the message was taken up. I’m a big fan of the Reddit community, and it didn’t disappoint,” the professor said. His post got more than 15,400 upvotes on Reddit in 24 hours.

“人們對這篇文章的反應(yīng)明顯比我預(yù)期的更大更廣泛。我很高興看到人們(基本上)積極地接受了這一信息。我是Reddit社區(qū)的忠實(shí)粉絲，它沒有讓我失望。”他的帖子在Reddit上24小時(shí)內(nèi)獲得了15400多個(gè)贊。

Dr. Couros went on to explain what changed between 2007 and 2019 to have made such a difference in how he looks. The changes have everything to do with more exercise, proper nutrition, and minimizing stress.

庫羅斯接著解釋了2007年到2019年之間發(fā)生了什么變化，讓他的外貌發(fā)生了如此大的變化。這些改變與更多的鍛煉、適當(dāng)?shù)臓I養(yǎng)和盡量減少壓力有關(guān)。

“My kids need me, and I need them. I have to be around for them as long as I possibly can,” the father-of-four bared his heart in the interview.

“我的孩子需要我，我也需要他們。我必須盡可能長時(shí)間地陪伴他們，”這位四個(gè)孩子的父親在采訪中袒露心聲。

Some people struggle with creating a warm, healthy relationship with their children or their parents. Luckily for all of us, Dr. Couros had some advice about parenting that he wanted to share with Bored Panda’s readers. According to him, connection is the foundation.

有些人很難與他們的孩子或父母建立一種溫暖、健康的關(guān)系。幸運(yùn)的是，庫羅斯博士有一些育兒的建議，他想和Bored Panda的讀者分享。在他看來，聯(lián)系是基礎(chǔ)。

“As part of my job, I am fortunate enough to talk to groups of parents across the globe to discuss the ins and outs of raising parents in the digital age. Connection is the term I use over and over. Connection can be about playing with our children, laughing with them, or enjoying time over a good meal.”

“作為我工作的一部分，我很幸運(yùn)能與全球各地的父母們討論在數(shù)字時(shí)代養(yǎng)育孩子的細(xì)節(jié)。“聯(lián)系”是我反復(fù)使用的一個(gè)術(shù)語。聯(lián)系可以是和我們的孩子一起玩，和他們一起笑，或者享受一頓美餐。”

Dr. Couros said that he has a challenge for all of you Readers. Are you ready? Here we go. “As a challenge to readers, I’d love you to think about ways that you can document the growth of your children (or loved ones) and the evolution of your relationships.”

庫羅斯博士說，他面臨著所有讀者的挑戰(zhàn)。你準(zhǔn)備好了嗎?我們開始吧。“作為對讀者的一個(gè)挑戰(zhàn)，我希望你們能思考一下如何記錄自己孩子(或愛人)的成長和人際關(guān)系的演變。”
