My mother was an English teacher who decided to become a math teacher, and she used me as a guinea pig at home. My father had been a math teacher and then went to work at a steel mill because, frankly, he could make more money doing that.

我母亲是一名英语教师，她决定成为一名数学教师，她在家里把我当作实验品。我的父亲曾经是一名数学老师，后来去了一家钢铁厂工作，因为坦白地说，他可以通过做这个赚更多的钱。
