Translations:Chapter One Trey/30/zh-cn

My parents’ struggle with their hyperkinetic, brainy, often contrarian, tempestuous son would absorb much of their energy as I grew up and would indelibly shape our family. As I’ve grown older, I better understand just how instrumental they were in helping chart my unconventional path to adulthood.

在我的成长过程中，我的父母为了应对这个好动、聪明、常常唱反调、个性激烈的儿子，耗费了大量的精力，这也深深影响了我们的家庭。随着年纪渐长，我愈来愈能理解我的父母，在我非传统的成长道路上发挥了很关键的影响。
