2 她在沒有女傭情形下，為我們煮飯、洗衣，養育我們。
首先，我們能活到現在，是因為有母親， 她在沒有女傭情形下，為我們煮飯、洗衣，養育我們。 First, we survived with mothers who had no maids They cooked /cleaned while taking care of us at the same time.

3 她們服用阿司匹林，糖果，碳酸飲料，刨冰加些糖漿， 發高燒時是用可樂加些鹽。糖尿病是相當罕見的。
They took aspirin, candy floss, fizzy drinks, shaved ice with syrup and diabetes was rare Salt added to Pepsi or Coke was remedy for fever.

4 那時，門、櫥櫃與藥瓶並沒有保護兒童的安全蓋，
我們騎自行車，也不用戴頭盔。 We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, doors or cabinets and when we rode our bikes, we had no helmets.

5 富裕的小孩可以乘坐沒有安全帶或安全氣囊的汽車
當我們是二、三歲孩子時 我們的父母會用自行車或摩托車載我們 富裕的小孩可以乘坐沒有安全帶或安全氣囊的汽車 As children, we would ride with our parents on bicycles/ motorcycles for 2 or Richer ones in cars with no seat belts or air bags.

6 Riding in the back of a private taxi was a special treat.
要想坐在計程車後座，是一件太難的事情 Riding in the back of a private taxi was a special treat.

7 We drank water from the tap and NOT from a bottle.
我們用嘴對水龍頭喝自來水，從不用水壺 We drank water from the tap and NOT from a bottle.

8 我們在烈日下放風箏， 一玩就是幾個小時， 從不擔心紫外線的問題
We would spend hours on the fields under bright sunlight flying our kites, without worrying about UV rays which never seem to affect us.

9 我們跑到叢林裡去抓蜘蛛，不擔心毒蚊 We go into the jungle to catch spiders without worries of Aedes mosquitoes.

10 僅靠五個小卵石， 已經是永遠玩不膩的遊戲。 若能有一個球（網球最好）， 幾乎就能把我們玩瘋掉
With mere 5 pebbles (stones) would be a endless game With a ball (tennis ball best) we boys would ran like crazy for hours.

11 We caught guppy in drains / canals and when it rained we swam there.
我們在排水溝或水塘抓大肚魚 下雨天，就在那戲水 We caught guppy in drains / canals and when it rained we swam there.

12 能有一罐飲料 就四個人大家分享 沒有人會擔心傳染病
We shared one soft drink with four friends from one bottle and NO ONE actually worry about being unhygenic.

13 我們吃鹽，甜食與油膩食物 加上糖果，麵包與牛油 喝非常甜的飲料與加糖咖啡與茶 但是就不會胖，因為…
We ate salty, very sweet & oily food, candies,bread and real butter and drank very sweet soft drinks, sweet coffee/ tea, ice kachang, but we weren't overweight because......

14 一直到路燈點亮才想到回家 沒人知道我們躲在哪玩 WE WERE ALWAYS OUTSIDE PLAYING!!
我們長期在室外玩耍 一早就跑出去，玩一整天 一直到路燈點亮才想到回家 沒人知道我們躲在哪玩 但是我們都能平安回家 WE WERE ALWAYS OUTSIDE PLAYING!! We would leave home in the morning and play all day, till streetlights came on No one was able to reach us all day And we were O.K.

15 我們會花幾個小時修理那些老爺腳踏車與木製滑板車
還不懂用煞車，就用他們從山坡上往下衝 經過幾次失事衝進樹叢裡 才學會一些教訓 We would spend hours repairing our old bicycles and wooden scooters out of scraps and then ride down the hill, only to find out we forgot the brakes After running into the bushes a few times, we learned to solve the problem.

16 那時，我們沒有那些像任天堂之類的電動遊戲 也沒有閉路電視、DVD影片、環場音響、電話
更沒電腦、網際網路 我們只有朋友 只要走出家們 就能找到他們 We did not have Playstations, Nintendo's, X-boxes, multiple channels on cable TV, DVD movies, no surround sound, no phones, no personal computers, no Internet WE HAD FRIENDS and we went outside and found them!

17 我們從樹上掉下來受了傷 甚至摔斷牙齒或骨頭 但是們依然樂此不疲
We fell out of trees, got cut, broke bones and teeth and we still continued the stunts.

18 We never had birthday parties till we were 21.
21歲前未曾有過生日聚會 We never had birthday parties till we were 21.

19 We rode bikes or walked to a friend's house and just yelled for them!
我們騎車或是走路到朋友家 只為了大聲叫他一聲 We rode bikes or walked to a friend's house and just yelled for them!

20 如果我們是因為無知而觸犯規定被抓了 家長們會以片面符合法律之詞 來保釋我們 The idea of a parent bailing us out if we broke the law was unheard of They actually sided with the law!

21 我們這一代卻產生了一些最好的風險接受人 與解決問題的高手和發明家！
Yet this generation has produced some of the best risk-takers, problem solvers and inventors ever!

22 過去40年是一個 創新、新思蓬勃的時代。 The past 40 years have been an explosion of innovation and new ideas.

23 我們有自由、失敗 成功、與責任 還有我們的所學
We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned

24 如何應對這一切！ 你也是他們之一呀 HOW TO DEAL WITH IT ALL! And YOU are one of them!

25 恭喜你 也許你想分享這些 給那尚未被新社會統御 也未曾經歷我們童年生活 的人知道
CONGRATULATIONS! You might want to share this with others who have had the luck to grow up as kids, before the government regulated our lives for our own good.

26 趁我們還活著 就轉告給下一代 他們的老爸老媽 當年是很英勇的
And while you are at it, forward it to your kids so they will know how brave their parents were.
