英文読解問題【高３ ★★★☆☆】
My parents always let me make my own choices. When I was younger, I thought they didn’t care. But as I grew older, I realized they were allowing me to become responsible. They believed that making mistakes was part of learning. Once, I made a poor decision about how to spend my time. I stayed out too late and missed an important test. I expected my parents to scold me, but instead, they said, “What did this experience teach you?” That made me think deeply. Later, I came to understand that they were always watching, even if they didn’t stop me. They ( ) me fail so that I could learn to succeed. Now, when I see someone struggling, I don’t rush to help. I watch, listen, and offer support when it’s needed—just like they did.
