(A)

It dawned on me recently that I am the only person in my family who doesn‘t benefit from having a mother in the house.

This was not only the case for me, but for a large number of fellow countrymen, including one friend who felt so bad one night that she got out of bed and cleaned her house in case the medical examiner had to come. (He didn‘t.)

―I want my mommy‖ indeed could be read throughout the cold, snowy descriptions of winter‘s Facebook, where many middle-aged women are known to go for comfort.

This translates as: ―I want a constant supply of homemade soup without asking for it.‖

Also: ―I want someone who can put her hand on my forehead and know within a degree what my temperature is.‖

More than anything, the desire for mommy translates into a longing for selfless constancy, for the all-knowing, all-knowing mother with a cold cloth in her hand, who never leaves the bedside except to go to the bathroom.

The image of the mother nurse at the sick bed-think Go ne With the Wind’s Melanie in the Civil War hospitals-is one of a perfect, warmhearted wisdom soldiers‘ holy person and medicine woman, a la Joan of Arc, Mother Teresa and Pocahontas rolled into one. She is a supernatural being who knows, without the help of Google, when her patient should go to the doctor and when she should stay in bed, which illness needs a warm bath and which needs a warm shower…

Now, to be fair: let me say that my good friend made soup for me-twice-while I was ill. My goddaughter, a nurse practitioner, texted every day, several times a day, from several states away. My husband often came home from work in the middle of the day to check on me. One night, which so happened to be an outdoor celebration , when I was at my most miserable and convinced it was time for the emergency room, my family gathered around me on the bed with red beans and rice．

There‘s nothing quite like a mother in situations like these. Literature knows it. History knows it. Even current studies show that mothers are still 10 times more likely than their husbands to leave work to tend to sick children and five times more likely to take the sick child to the doctor, like a kid than a mother these days, continuously circling my sick bed, meowing for food while I suffer in a pile of cough drop wrappers.

There is hope: I asked my primary care provider, who is a woman and a mother, at my office visit midway through my illness, if she would be my mommy.

She threw her head back and laughed.

From winning a complex war to developing a life-saving drug: there are so many things that can only be achieved if people work together in harmony. They can then achieve impressive performances that also benefit the individual. So, why do colleagues or others so often make things difficult for one another? Experimental research carried out by De Dreu has shown that greed and fear are the basic reasons determining problems with teamwork. ―People are afraid that their contribution will mainly benefit those people who themselves contribute nothing. That‘s why people hold back and invest in self-protection rather than cooperation.‖

De Dreu examined the strategies people use to maximize the benefits for themselves and to reduce the risk of being exploited. He conducts experiments where the participants can invest in self-protection or attacks on others, or they can choose to do nothing. When motivated by greed, people seem to invest mainly in self-protection and less in attacks on others. ―Fear is almost always present as a brake on cooperation, but it‘s more difficult to predic t when greed will crop up.‖ The puzzle is that fear among rival groups tends to result in people working better together. ―It seems to happen almost auto …… 此处隐藏：40951字，全部文档内容请下载后查看。喜欢就下载吧 ……
