     My teenage son Karl became withdrawn after his father died. As a single parent, I tried to do my best to talk to him.
But he didn't talk anything with me and even with others. When his report card arrived during his junior year, it said that
he had been absent 95 times from classes and had six failing grades for the year. At this rate he would never graduate. I
sent him to the school adviser, and I even begged him. Nothing worked.
     One night I felt so powerless that I got down on my knees and prayed. "Please God, I can't do anything more for my
son. I'm at the end of my rope. I'm giving the whole thing up to you."
     I was at work when I got a phone call. A man introduced himself as the headmaster. "I want to talk to you about Karl's
absences." Before he could say another word, I choked up(哽咽) and all my disappointment and sadness over Karl came
pouring out into the ears of this stranger. "I love my son but I just don't know what to do. I've tried everything to get
Karl to go back to school and nothing has worked. It's out of my hands." For a moment there was silence on the other
end of the line. The headmaster seriously said, "Thank you for your time", and hung up.
     Karl's next report card showed a surprising improvement in his grades. Finally, he even made the honor roll. That year,
I attended a parent-teacher meeting with Karl. I noticed that his teachers were surprised at his great progress. On our
way home, he said, "Mum, remember that call from the headmaster last year?" I nodded. "That was me. I thought I'd play
a joke but when I heard what you said, it really hit me how much I was hurting you. That's when I knew I had to make
you proud."

At the age of 17, Jack entered the finals of the Pineline Masters – the world’s most famous surfing competition. Everyone thought Jack would become a professional surfing like his father. Unluckily, one month later, he had a deadly accident while surfing and was seriously hurt.
