親愛的安妮：

My son, Quentin, has always had a problem tellingthe truth. It started in kindergarten and becameworse over time. He's a grown man now and will lieabout anything from what he was doing an hour agoto whether he lost his job.

我的兒子昆汀一直有個毛病，就是總是撒謊。幼兒園的時候他就開始撒謊，隨著時間的推移，這個毛病越來越嚴重了。他現(xiàn)在是一個成年人了。但是，從他一個小時前在做什么到他是否失去了工作如此種種，他都要撒謊。

Quentin's wife lies just as much as he does. Neither of them can keep a job and now they havea child together and another on the way.

昆汀的妻子和他一樣喜歡撒謊。他們兩個都沒有穩(wěn)定的工作，現(xiàn)在他們有了一個孩子，另一個孩子也即將出生。

How can I help Quentin see what he is doing to himself and his family? How do I get him tostop lying? I took him to counseling when he was a child, but the therapist simply said Quentinhad an active imagination and would grow out of it.

我怎樣才能幫助昆廷，讓他看看他對自己和家人都做了什么?我如何讓他停止說謊?他還是個孩子的時候，我?guī)プ鲂睦碜稍?，但治療師只是簡單地說昆汀想象力很活躍，等長大了就不會這樣了。

I can't afford therapy and am uncomfortable discussing this with my pastor. What is aworried mother to do? - Worried Mom

我沒錢給昆汀做治療，我也不想和我的牧師談?wù)撨@個令人不悅的事。我這個憂心忡忡的母親該怎么做呢? ——一個憂心的媽媽

Dear Mom:

親愛的媽媽：

Quentin must recognize the negative impact of his lies and want to stop. Unfortunately, thatdoesn't seem to be the case, which means nothing you do is likely to make a difference in hisbehavior, especially since his wife will undercut your efforts. Right now, the only person whowill benefit from counseling is you. You could try contacting the American Association ofPastoral Counselors or the American Counseling Association.

昆廷必須意識到他這種行為的負面影響，并停止說謊。不幸的是，情況并不如此，這意味著你所做的一切并沒有對他產(chǎn)生任何作用，特別是他妻子的所作所為也削弱你的努力。眼下，唯一需要做心理咨詢的人就是你了。你可以嘗試聯(lián)系一下美國教牧咨詢專家協(xié)會或美國輔導(dǎo)學(xué)會。
