When Wilbur and Orville Wright finished their flight at Kitty Hawk, Americans celebrated the brtherly bnd. The brthers had grwn up playing tgether, they had been in the newspaper business tgether, and they had built an airplane tgether. They even said they "thught tgether." Hwever, when the Wright brthers said they thught tgether, what they really meant is that they argued tgether. After lng arguments we ften fund urselves in the psitin f each having been pulled t the ther's side,"
Orville reflected. I dn't think they really gt mad," their mechanic (机械师) remembered, but they sure gt awfully ht."
The skill t get ht withut getting mad is critical in life. But it’s ne that few parents teach t their kids. We want t give kids a stable hme, s we ѕtор ѕіblіngѕ (兄弟姐妹) frm quаrrеlіng and we have ur wn arguments behind clsed drs. Yet if kids never get expsed t disagreement, we’ll end up limiting their creativity. As the psychlgist Rbert Albert put it, the creative persn-t-be cmes frm a family that is anything but harmnius, ne with a “wbble (摇晃).”Orville Wright came frm a wbbly family.

Brainstrming grups generate16 percent mre ideas when the members are encuraged t criticize ne anther. The mst creative ideas in Chinese technlgy cmpanies cme frm teams that have real disagreement early n.
Children need t learn the value f thughtful disagreement. We shuld teach kids that silence is bad manners. It disrespects the value f yur wn view pint and yur wn vice. It's a sign f respect t care enugh abut smene's pinin that yu’re willing t challenge it. Gd arguments are wbbly: a team r family might rck back and frth but it never tips ver. If kids dn't learn t wbble, they never learn t walk; they end up standing still.

When I was a kid, my parents sent me t a summer camp in New Hampshire.

When I was yung, my mther was ging t Flrida t visit my grandmther. I begged her t take me with her. “I’ll take yu, but remember,” my mther warned me, “Grandma is sick.“ I had seen plenty f sick peple befre, s I figured it wuldn’t be a big deal. Besides, by the time we gt t Flrida, my grandma wuld prbably be kay. Then we wuld have fun just as we used t. I remembered hw excited I had felt the summer befre when my grandma carried me n her shulders dwn the streets.
Grandma was a great stryteller and her stries made me feel special whenever she tld them. ”Grandma, tell me a stry,“ I’d say, and she wuld always begin the stry, “Once upn a time there was a by named Billy…” Every stry started with a by named after me. When I arrived at her huse, my first wrds were ging t be, “Grandma, tell me a stry.”
When I gt t Grandma’s huse, she didn’t cme ut t meet me. Even after I ran up the steps, she still didn’t cme ut t meet me. I went int her bedrm. Instantly, I was seized by terrr and disgust, because what I saw in that rm wasn’t my happy-g-lucky(无忧无虑的)grandmther. It was a crumpled(皱的)bdy, thin and weak.
That night as I lay in bed, I heard my grandma maning in pain. It had the same effect n me as smene running fingernails acrss the blackbard. It was s annying that I just wanted t tell her t stp. Hwever, I didn’t and it cntinued all night.
A few weeks after we came hme, my mther asked me whether it was all right if Grandma came t live with us. I said yes, but in reality I never wanted t see her again. Althugh my grandma lived with us fr the next few mnths, I never went int her rm. She culdn’t get ut f bed. I didn’t have t see her.
