Relationship to Mother 与母亲的关系 He recalled several instances when, after particularly violent arguments, his mother would come to his room, slobbering drunk. She would be crying. She would embrace him and fondle him—sobbing all the while how much she loved him and how much she needed him—asking whether he loved her and whether he would stay with her. These episodes were very discomforting to Don. He reflected on them that they seemed somehow abnormal. They embarrassed him and made him feel uneasy. He felt that her motives were apparent, and that there was something highly sexual and erotic about the procedure. 他记得有几次,在特别激烈的争吵之后,他的母亲会醉醺醺地来到他的房间。她会哭的。她会拥抱他,爱抚他——一直在哭着说,她是多么爱他,多么需要他——问他是否爱她,是否会和她在一起。这些插曲让唐很不舒服。他反思它们,觉得它们似乎有些不正常。它们使他难堪,使他感到不安。他觉得她的动机很明显,而且这个过程中有某种高度的性和情色。 Don had always been very close to his mother. He grew up a rather shy and withdrawn child. He was bright and always did well in school, standing at the head of his class in grammar and high school. But he never got along well with his age-mates. He was small in stature and chubby in build. Because of his size and shyness, other kids tended to pick on him. He recalled that this was particularly painful for him in junior high school. He felt hurt and angry when kids picked on him—especially for his somewhat childlike, short and fat build. He remembered being very self-conscious. The boys would have to undress for gym class and Don was afraid of this. He was particularly afraid to expose his genitals, feeling embarrassed and ashamed. He felt that they were smaller than anyone else's and that if the other boys saw them he would be ridiculed and made fun of. He wanted only to escape from all this torment and stay at home with his mother—she was the only one who loved and understood him. 唐和他的母亲一直很亲密。他长成了一个相当害羞和孤僻的孩子。他很聪明,在学校的成绩总是很好,在小学和中学都名列前茅。但是他从来没有和他的同龄人相处得很好。他身材矮小,身材胖乎乎的。因为他的身材和害羞,其他孩子都喜欢捉弄他。他回忆说,在初中的时候,这对他来说尤其痛苦。当孩子们捉弄他时,他感到既受伤又生气——尤其是他那有点孩子气、又矮又胖的身材。他记得自己非常难为情。男孩们上体育课得脱光衣服,唐对此很害怕。他特别害怕暴露自己的生殖器,感到尴尬和羞愧。他觉得他的比别人的都要小,如果其他男孩看到他的,他会被嘲笑和取笑的。他只想逃离这一切折磨,呆在家里和母亲在一起——她是唯一爱他、理解他的人。
